Author: Andy  | Posted: 03-12-2005 | Comments: 0 | Views: 238 | Rating: (51)  (?) 
Some say that Riga is the new Prague. Others consider it an up market alternative to Amsterdam. Its shopping district is referred to as ‘Little Paris'. The truth is that Riga, the capital city of Latvia, has always boasted a rich and colourful heritage with cobbled streets, beautiful architecture and exquisite boutiques and it is a melting pot of the very best that East and West Europe has to offer. With travellers now demanding a wider variety of new and exciting destinations to visit, Riga, nestled between Estonia and Lithuania and bordering Russia, provides the perfect platform to explore the Baltic States.
With low air fares now widely available and an excellent choice of modern and traditional hotels, Riga is fast becoming one of the most popular city break destinations ranging from short stays of 2 or 3 nights up to week long stays. Most hotels offer fantastic massages and on-site Casinos as gambling is a favourite national pastime!
With an excellent nightlife easily rivalling (and bettering) that in other Eastern European cities, Riga makes for the perfect stag/hen weekend away and offers you an unrushed, clean, green and affordable alternative to Amsterdam. Shopping is great in Riga as you can pick up designer bargains along with handmade chocolates, which are unique to Riga.
For tourists who love history, the architecture in Riga is sure to please. Riga is known for its historical monuments and structures. Structures like The Melngalvju House, The Small Guild, The Large Guild, The Large Guild, Latvian National Opera, The Freedom Monument and many more including churches like The Dome Cathedral, St. Peter's Lutheran Church and St. John's Lutheran Church.

What is the earliest year (A.D.) which people referred to as "this year"?
By: Dr. Dave | 19-11-2007
In the earliest days (A.D.), it is obvious (at least to me) that the people didn't refer to the year they were living in as "45", or "1", or such early numbers. They probably still refererred to the date as in the reign of Nero, or some such. When did people start referring to the year that they were living in in the current A.D. system? I know that when Constatine established Christianity as the "official" religion, it was about 306 A.D. When did the current numbering start--i.e., when did someone say "I'm living in the year 128" or whatever it was?
