Wall Street in Riga |
"Three Wall Street" is written on the wall.
From Latvian the name of the place , Valnu street 3, really means Wall street nr.3! :) The "Wall" street was named after the fortification walls that used to surround all Riga till th middle of 19th cent.. The Powder Tower - the most famous from the few fortification towers wich has remained till nowadays, also is near that place.


All this building was restored on the money of a Latvian/Russian millionair Jevgenij Gomberg. They also have restored the old sculpture of a Golden Night, and put some pictures of Riga on the wall.


Location: Old Town, Vaļņu Street 3, near the Powder Tower.
