[Music] Today I’m going on a bike ride to Jurmala and then to Ragaciem. We plan to ride about 100 km, a little more. So we’re going on our way. And now we’re only going along Brīvības Street, passing Vef, one of the former flagships of Latvian industry. There was a huge territory here. A big territory now, but not like a factory. And now we’re going to the Air Bridge. We’re going to cross the Air Bridge. Tourists are passing by . street to the big graves Old Riga cemeteries where many people are buried German surnames I see here Probably some important and wealthy people of Riga who were once there in ancient times Chapels like a park a long time ago for many years And now forward along Valdemāras street Now I turn to Bruņiniek street Bad people have piled up glass Maukas like this Well, what is going on here And now from Bruņiniek to the school streets Schools we will go through the whole of Riga to to the end Well, until the summer Let’s drive through the parking lot Left Rainis Jānis Rainis with a bucket on his head I’ve always thought how lucky we were and maybe even he himself that he died before the 40-year Russian occupation, because there is a very good chance that he could have become a collaborator and then we wouldn’t have the great lat dižgar of our time [Music] And the next person with the channel is guiding tourists on boats And this is the place where it was filmed episode of the film Sapanda 1935 Here our basketball players and actors were preparing for the trip to Geneva Vienkrosiņu this place Across from us the national museum Advertisement will entertain the family Well, John is approaching It’s John’s show And I will go up to the Vanču bridge A We are crossing the Daugava Yes we are already in Pārzaugava and we are on the other side of Ķipsal, maybe this canal meets Rekur is the technical university Now we go on past the botanical garden to forward in the direction of the Jūrmala bicycle path Left botanical garden Lots of interesting fruits It looks great It looks like something has just grown up Some sort of overgrown park or forest Yes, it’s beautiful there And there used to be a Georgian kitchen Ha It looks like she’s back It looks like it’s even tidy inside Well re And now we’re going now we’re almost to Jūrmala I still canceled This could almost be called the beginning of the Jūrmala bicycle path It’s not quite there It’s still a street someone on some industrial district In fact, in fact, the depot building of the train was once here , at least to the left It’s definitely an iron depot building There’s hardly even asphalt here anymore [Music] You almost certainly want to call this the Jūrmala bicycle Cyclists also drive ahead Well, now it’s definitely if it’s marked as a bicycle bike here It was built by an interesting man like Alfreds Rubeks during the Soviet era He was quite a sporty guy He liked tennis as well as some other sports activities In the ribekli what he worked on later That’s another thing But he also built There are old trains the wagons are standing Because my grandmother used to say the sick trains Here are the sick trains What are we going forward along this big path all the way to Jūrmala The first station on my way is the so-called green A relatively new station was built and opened during the Soviet times In the old days there was no such I needed a station in Zolitu, a micro-district in the middle of the district , [Music] And the next station on my way is Imta and in front of us there is a tunnel that we have to go through. Usually there is always a lot of water in the tunnel , because it must have been built in a bad way, so that the tunnel has accumulated water at the very bottom . Well, what will happen this time? runs as you can see now runs steps well doing something Later a lot will appear cyclists And here there is a place in front. You can see people taking water. I don’t know why they all thought it was spring water. It’s just from the water pipe. There’s a tap outside. You can get water from the city water pipe. I’ve been a couple of times . In Imanta, Babīte is almost like in the famous old Jarān Porgant program and also in the song Imanta Babīte doesn’t stop. And here on the left, a commemorative plaque of the spirit of the First World War and the soldiers on these starving people. The battles were near here. Yes , in principle, there were even those legs here. Well, the sign started in Jurmala. I’m here in Jurmala. The train is also passing by as it was planned to come to Jurmala. You could turn around and go back, but no no. The plan is further on. go through the whole of Jūrmala A little further to Ragaciem, we’ll do the same How it started in Jūrmala, the good cycle path ended up being restored It started like this, the old one here, this one is still from old times , built by Rubik And in front of me, the next station on my way is dieda Yes That, and here I’ll drive over Zare, go to the Jūrmala highway and then cross over the bridge over the Liellupi into Jūrmala Now there’s a restored cycle path on the left side You can finish cool driving pleasant calm Until recently a couple of years ago there was no path it was a simple trot Then I drove along the street The street is also quiet here There are very few cars nothing crazy but now it’s cooler Eh and now I’ll drive up Zma highway big up stile in front big and Jūrmala [Applause] And in front on the right is Livu Aquapark There’s Livu Aquapart From here we’re down We’re at the end ahead again on my way there’s a station This is Bulderu station They say let’s drive over the railway [Music] And let’s go a little bit to the sea, a minute’s break Well, I’m in the bulls by the sea at the Buldru rescue station [Music] After a two-minute break, I’m going on Now only through the whole of Jūrmala We continue driving through Jūrmala On all sides Beautiful houses And there will be an interesting object in front of me I’ll drive past him specially The private house in Jūrmal looks quite proud And the first object is Peter’s Here is his really big statue 4 m high stage And I’ll note that it’s not some kind of self-made statue built by some enthusiast. This is the original, original Peter’s first monument. You can still see him and his back. Who was this monument installed in Riga in 1910? I’ll stop quickly. I know it’s not nice to film someone else’s property, but that’s okay. However, the statues were installed in Riga on the 10th of 1910, and he was in that place. where there is now a free monument In that very place, this monument was installed And and and and and the then Tsar of Russia Nicholas I even came from St. Petersburg to participate in the opening of this monument. Yes, it is interesting. Well, look, this is a real lover of the Russian Empire. Re, where has he got a new statue? Well, I will research what it is at home. then I’ll write it down Well , yes, if I finish about Nicholas, about that Peter So, in 10 years, when they installed Peter I , he stood there for five years. In 14 years, the first world war began. And in 15 years, the Germans approached Riga . the boat went down Wind from the lee under the water in the sea In some 30 years already independent Estonia Piemur was brought out . it was simply put away somewhere Then the Soviet power came after 10 years And the villages even more Peter the first was not needed but he was put away somewhere not quite destroyed And then when it was 90 years Latvia was independent again Then a Jewish businessman restored him with his own money Restored It was still in 2001 when there were 800 in Riga for that holiday he was put away put away for three days in Kronvald park so people could look and after that was interesting And then he was parked in Teika in the yard of an apartment building in the parking lot I saw it myself It was Brīvības ielas you can say Brīvības ielas were counted From Brīvības ielas in the courtyards I drove away I looked around I saw Well hey and now he has been here in Jurmala for several years Does this Jorik live by himself Did he sell or give or gift him to someone I don’t know I’m interested in who is the other one Is it what I thought the ex Mayor of Riga or not But I’ll check at home The other statue wasn’t like that until autumn And the Jūrmala Road through Jūrmala People have crashed Although it’s high and such a rest It’s like June 14 It’s summer but it’s cold People are walking around in jackets It’s going to be a bit cold for me too, it’s showing some 15° temperature In front of the Jūrmala council building Here Gatis Trūksnis returned to power after the elections that just took place He has been mayor several times He He’s been thrown out. He’s all done with him. He’s going to Valenzem B. He’s back at home. The seasiders like it. And on the left side there’s a station again. It’s a double station. It used to be built like that during the Soviet era. It was very modern with this curved roof . And on the way back , I’ll drive down that side . [Music] in front of the corner this little house, how is it on the street, this is the little house, where my mother used to live in the summer, with my grandmother, her brother, my grandmother rented this room in that house Driving through the summers to relax It was about 50 years, the end of the mid-50s And now this section until Vaivari, you drive along this street, not the main street, but there are private houses like streets. It’s very interesting in Jūrmala today. little Latvian national flag Well, still with a mourning veil, but today is June 14, the day when the Russian occupiers came to Vaivari 41 years ago. To the left, the La Var rehabilitation center. Now, where is the main street again? Now this way to Kauguris. I’m not in Kauguris. Every time this recreation park, which last year was all one of the fallen trees from last year’s windstorm, how come we can see many places in the forest, but now most of them have been harvested Bee Last year, it was so bad. Now let’s skip to Nesta or Hesīt. We’ll get to the sea. Then we ‘ll get to the sea. Ah , Jūrmala ‘s Lidls. I’ll get to the sea in the hills . [ Music] Rock the seas out for us . the second version of the route The other version is that it turns here to kemeri, drives to kemeri through the kemeri, then past the serabots and back along Kanieri to the Lapmeži village Well, and then back again to Jurmala and to Riga The first option, which I will do today, I will drive straight to Ragacies [ Applause] Well , Jurmala is over .
