Latvia is closely associated with the Christmas tree, and some legends say it was in Old Town Riga that the first Christmas tree was decorated in front of the House of Blackheads on Town Hall Square at the beginning of the 16th century. Christmas is approaching, and one of the signs testifying to this is the Old Town Christmas Fair with sweet-smelling mulled wine, roasted almonds, glittering glazed gingerbread, and local handcraft.
Visitors will have a chance to find their Christmas miracle here every day. Various concerts and workshops are on the program, with Santa Claus entertaining kids and adults alike.
