Beautifull park next to old town, freedom monument and many other places to see, so it yould be next to impossible to miss it, but it is highly recomended not to rush trough it, but take some time to look around and enjoy the beauty around you. In summer there are some docks where you can take boat trips trough the canal and Daugava river.

We stayed in the Grand Poet by Samannah Hotel which is adjacent to this lovely parkland and walked through it many times to the old town with its many beautiful buildings, restaurants and bars. There are many large trees, flowers and particularly remember the Hydrangea Paniculata which were huge when we were there in September. Two men were playing music when we walked through one day and it was lovely to look over the water and hear the music.
