"Cold Soup" season is here again! 🥣
As late May swelters, it is not the sun or tulips that signal summer in Latvia, but the arrival of "aukstā zupa" – a vibrant pink cold soup with a boiled egg and a sprig of dill. This seasonal delight cools the body and mind, and it is prepared in kitchens across the country. Want to try it?

'Cold soup' season is here again The unseasonably sweltering conditions of late May prompt many thoughts beyond trepidation that if it's 30 degees now, what will the temperature be in mid-July?

Walk the Sloka Lake Nature Trail! At the moment the nature trail is very unusual and beautiful! Dumbraja sees a seasonal influx of blackberries.

❗️The water level on the trail has risen, so it is recommended to choose water-proof shoes for a walk.
It is best to start the walk from Sloka Lake Bird Tower, because the other end of the trail is flooded.
The length of the log is 3.1 km, it is located in the territory of Kemeri National Park.

Riga, Latvia
In 2024 visit the most cosmopolitan of the Baltic capitals, Riga, the capital of Latvia, is a modern city with a historical heart that offers a spectacular variety of natural, culinary and cultural charms.

Exploring the best places in Riga will give you a definitive answer to the question of why Riga is worth visiting. Riga Old town has UNESCO World Heritage status. The historical center holds many winding paths and well-hidden streets to rediscover the Old Town Riga upon every visit. It is surrounded by Romanticism, Gothic and Baroque testimonials that refresh the views of the modern city.

Pedantic luxury of the rich building facades can be admired for a long time at Art Nouveau district because about a third of the houses in the city center are genuine pearls of this style. Architecture, theaters, art galleries, outdoor events are only a small part of the whole cultural pie that can be tasted in Riga. The luxurious Opera House, various music halls, independent cinemas, and contemporary art scene are among the brightest cultural offerings.

At the end of 2023 Latvia and Riga joined exclusive Michelin guide family, earing it's first star. In Riga you can find cozy cafes or fancy restaurants on every corner in the city center. Food menus there consist of combinations of local and world cuisine flavors, emphasizing seasonal and locally available products. Whether it is a restaurant with white tablecloths or a place to grab a coffee and some vegan bread, it is evident that Riga likes to eat and enjoy food. And let's not forget about the drinks! Riga is home to the best coffee roasters in the Baltics, thus finding a decent cup of Joe in the city is not a problem. The same applies for a glass of beer, as there are a quite a few of home-grown breweries that take their IPA’s and lagers very seriously.

Despite the remarkable age of 822, Riga is far from feeling old. The city's youthful spirit is best enjoyed at one of the street food festivals or other creative and urban events held throughout the year. But if you want to get more adventurous and closer to the nature, you just have to spend only thirty minutes from the city center to the beach, districts surrounded by forests and fresh sea air, walking along the pier - unique proximity to nature with breathtaking landscapes that you can enjoy here in Riga. Almost everything nature has to offer is just a short drive away.

DIVI VAKARI AR LNSO, ANTONU ĻAHOVSKI UN TARMO PELTOKOSKI

Piektdien, 9. februārī, plkst. 19.00 Lielajā ģildē LNSO, Antons Ļahovskis un Tarmo Peltokoski. PAPILDKONCERTS
Sestdien, 10. februārī, plkst. 19.00 Lielajā ģildē LNSO, Antons Ļahovskis un Tarmo Peltokoski

ANTONS ĻAHOVSKIS – klavieres
Diriģents Tarmo PELTOKOSKI

Programmā:
Sergejs PROKOFJEVS Otrais klavierkoncerts
Dmitrijs ŠOSTAKOVIČS 11. simfonija

Kopīgā programmā divos koncertos uz skatuves atgriežas LNSO/Latvijas Nacionālais simfoniskais orķestris mākslinieciskais vadītājs un galvenais diriģents Tarmo Peltokoski un Latvijas publikas iemīļotais pianists Antons Ļahovskis. Abi mūziķi kopā ar LNSO muzicēja 2022. gada janvārī. Šis koncerts izvērtās tik emocionāli piesātināts un eksplozīvs, ka tika nolemts – orķestra jaunais mākslinieciskais vadītājs būs neviens cits kā tolaik 21 gadu jaunais soms Peltokoski, kura plaukstošā diriģēšanas karjera bija nupat sākusies. Nu ciešā un veiksmīgā sadarbība turpinās jau otro sezonu, un šajā koncertā dzirdēsim Dmitrija Šostakoviča 11. simfoniju, kurā atrodami daudzi muzikāli zemteksti – kā jau visā skaņraža daiļradē, savukārt kopā ar Antonu Ļahovski šoreiz izskanēs Sergeja Prokofjeva Otrā klavierkoncerta lasījums – šis darbs radīts kā piemiņa komponista draugam, un mūzikā šeit parādās nepastarpināta emocionalitāte, kas mijas ar dzelžainu precizitāti un tehniku.
