Barona iela 126 - Orthodox cloister
Today a bit of unseen Riga - this is an Orthodox women cloister (Rīgas Svētās Trijādības-Sergija sieviešu klosteris) which was founded in the end of 19th Century. Not many rigans know that such a cloister exist in the city centre. Although it is located between 2 main streets (Barona and Čaka), inside it's territory a silence and calmness is felt. Refined with a nice gardens, it is an island of peace in the midst of always hurried city. [full_width]
