Art Nouveau

Riga is literally a treasure trove of Art Nouveau architecture -- it was simply unbelievable. This is the Hungarian Embassy, situated in the district famous for its superb examples of this architectural style. Art Nouveau was, however, all over the city, just not always as spectacular as the buildings in this part of town.
