The parliament building is not open to the public but it is nonetheless an imposing building worthy of view from the outside. Not only is it the parliament building, it is also home to public services and the highest court in Latvia.
The building is quite grand with interesting facades. Located opposite the Russian orthodox cathedral.

You would think the Latvian Parliament would reside in a posher and more impressive building, but it is located here, in this somehow unassuming building.

The building is not very impressive but well worth a stop to ponder its history having housed the Nobility, the Nazis, the Soviets and now the democratically elected.Parliament.

On our walking tour, this interesting building was pointed out - The Latvian Parliament Building which also houses the Courts. The front of the building was extended outwards and the stonework was matched precisely. It was not open to the public.

We walked past this while going through the old town,and wondered what the building was as it is clearly significant. Only when looking it up did we realise it was the Parliament. Although it is not open to go round it is still impressive with the iron chains hanging from the lions’ heads, the huge door knockers and lampposts.

A building politically important and artistically notable. Looking at it you can feel a bit like in Florence. To be seen while walking around.

We didn't plan to visit this at all, but noticed it's Night of Museums 2016 during our arrival, and this Parliament was open for public and free, of course we went there for visit despite a real long queue outside. It's really worth a visit, as it's something we could usually see only in the TV after all.
If want to visit inside, please visit Riga in May for Night of Museums. The exact date please check its official page.

Probably not a stand alone attraction, however during a walk of the old town, built in the late 1800's, it is worth a look to see and appreciate the architectural design of the period.
