Latvia's Stunning Nature and History | Epic Road Trip to the North Cape | #3

In 5 weeks, I’ll be driving through 9 countries and covering nearly 14,000 kilometers (8,700 miles) on my roadtrip to the North Cape. In this third video, I’m taking you through the picturesque landscapes and historic sites of Latvia. From vibrant cities like Jelgava and Riga to the serene nature of national parks, Latvia offers a mix of culture, history, and stunning wilderness.

I’ll explore the charming city of Jelgava, known for its beautiful baroque palace, and take you through the streets of Riga, Latvia's lively capital. In between, we’ll lose ourselves in the natural beauty of Ķemeri National Park, with its magical bog trails and untouched wetlands, as well as Gauja National Park, home to dramatic valleys, caves, and medieval ruins. Of course, no trip to Latvia would be complete without visiting some of its many castles and ancient ruins scattered throughout the countryside.
