Вецаки | Курорт, который не получился?

Hello, dear friends! Winter has truly arrived in Riga, and isn't that a great reason to talk about the sea, sun, and resorts? I remember, back when I was just starting out as a history buff, asking my mother why, in my youth, they always went to the seaside in Jurmala, not Vecaki, even though it was much closer. She replied that Jurmala was bustling not only with the sea, but also with life—Jomas Street, cafes, restaurants, music, and dancing. But in Vecaki, the sea is a long way from the train, and overall, it's rather boring. If, like me, you've ever wondered why Jurmala became the resort town of Latvia, and not, say, Vecaki, then this video is for you. Let's figure it out together. 00:00 - Introduction 01:20 - History of the Region 09:55 - Tragedy of the steamship "Neibad" 17:52 - Further Development of the Region Support the author: boosty.to/anya_kadeka LV57PARX0020713740001 Anna Kadeka Video about the Daugava    • Даугава | История главной реки Латвии   Sources information: https://www.delfi.lv/life/56017218/at... https://press.lv/post/sovetskaya-latv... https://press.lv/post/nochnaya-krazha... a-militsiya-v-70-h-vychislila-gastarbajtera-iz-pskova#google_vignette https://replay.lsm.lv/lv/skaties/iera... https://replay.lsm.lv/lv/skaties/iera... #Riga #history #Latvia
