Riga Central Market is situated in the heart of Riga, a few hundred meters from Old Town (7 min walk distance) on the banks of the River Daugava, next to Riga International Bus Terminal and Central Railway Station. It is not only one of the largest marketplaces in Eastern Europe in area, but also one of the most visited, as 80,000-100,000 people shop there per day on the average. Architecturally-imposing food pavilions, built in the 1920s, are Riga Central Market’s calling card. Originally used as military airship hangars, they were later transformed into market venues. Riga Central Market is unique not only with its pavilions but also with its old warehouses or the so-called spikeri (from German Spéicher), which have now been turned into a hip arts&entertainment quarter. In 1998, the vast territory of Riga Central Market was added to the UNESCO World Heritage list. At Riga Central Market, you can buy Latvian-grown and homemade products, exotic fruit and spices, as well as manufactured merchandise. The market includes 5 pavilions each with its own category - vegetables, dairy, meat, fish and gastronomy products, as well as an outdoor area with stalls and stands, the Night Market and ‘Round the Clock Farmers’ Market. It’s also true, however, that the Market’s distracting hustle and bustle is fertile ground for swindlers and pickpockets, so be careful!

Not a shop :), but Riga Central market is only 10 min walking distance away from the appartment (the closest route is by taking Ernesta Birznieka Upīša Street and then going straight through the Origo tunnels. On Your right You'll see the market. It opens at 7 am, starts closing at approximately 5 pm. Everything fresh, many of the groceries local (depends on the season) from veggies to dairy, fish and meat. A Gastro market opened reacently between veggies and dairy pavillions. Here You can find loads of street food style desks from Asian to Italian - whatever You prefer. Could be crowded during weekends.
