Bear Buddies of Riga

140 bear buddies stand side by side in the cathedral square. They represent countries recognised by the United Nations. Each one is painted by an artist of the country. The exhibition, similar can be seen in other countries, encourages values, respect and collaboration between countries.

Extra shows view into the square with people wandering around looking for their own native country's bear..then taking a selfie!

We are at the airport waiting to fly home. A lovely few days. Thank you Riga.
