It's not a secret that Riga is one of the most notorious centers of Art Nouveau architecture. From 12th to 30th April there was an exhibition of Riga's Art Nouveau in Riga Townhall building central hall. Of course, only a small part of wast Art Nouveau heritage was contained in this exhibition but for a tourists and those Rigans (and sadly they are very many) who never take a look up when walking on the street, it could be some kind of discovery. Photos were good and well exposed, nice job.
Nav nekāds noslēpums, ka Rīga ir ļoti nozīmīgs Jūgendstila arhitektūras centrs. No 12. līdz 30. aprīlim Rīgas Rātsnamā bija aplūkojama izstāde par Rīgas Jūgendstilu. Protams, ka šajā izstādē bija aptverta tikai neliela daļa no visa plašā Rīgas Jūgendstila mantojuma, tomēr tūristiem un tiem rīdziniekiem (un diemžēl tādu nav mazums), kuri nekad nepalūkojas augšup, ejot pa ielu, izstāde varēja būt sava veida atklājums. Fotogrāfijas tajā bija labas un veiksmīgi izstādītas, labi padarīts darbs.

You are so right, many buildings have "diamonds upstairs" - in many small and big citys all over the world!
