Wooden architecture - Kalnciema street
Kalnciema street area is full of brilliant wooden buildings. Because it is a main street going from airport to centre, it was refurbished heavily before NATO summit in Riga in 2006.
Almost looks like a church. My first thought was how did they keep the wood looking so new and fresh - I guess if they refurbished in 2006 - that's my answer..
this is a gorgeous photo of the wooden buildings. Nice texture and I like the architectural details.
ReplyDeleteI've always found old wooden buildings to be interesting. They certainly don't build like they used to.
