Timeline
14:00
Grab a local snack or drink at Āgenskalns Market. It opens at 07:30, so it is fully active by mid-afternoon.
14:45
Walk to the Church of St. Albert. The interior was partly designed in the 1950s despite the official atheist propaganda of the Soviet Union. The quiet atmosphere here is perfect for a moment of reflection before the sun sets.
16:15
Stay for the sunset. The sun sets toward the SW at 16:15, casting a final glow on the church's exterior.
17:00
End your walk at Pils. This bar is open from 16:00 to 00:00, making it the ideal spot to unwind after the church visit.
Local tip
The Church of St. Albert has no fixed opening hours listed, so check locally for access times. Āgenskalns Market closes at 18:00, so arrive early enough to browse.
