Great museum to visit. Old and modern architecture together. Interesting collections of art. I really liked the idea how to open art collections to the visitors in the basement. more »

It was such a nice experience! The building looks incredibly impressive from the outside and the art inside is just as amazing! The visitors are able to observe the art from different perspectives... more »

Amazing building. Excellent, classy cafe for a meal or snack. I loved seeing the 1917-1940 Latvian works, they could hold their own anywhere. There was also a floor dedicated to contemporary art, and a special exhibit of conceptual art ....which I probably needed more time to ponder. Take time to walk down the stairs to the lowest level and see the visible paintings storage area on the way.
