09 Main Orthodox Church of Riga.. - Riga, Latvia

 


09 Main Orthodox Church of Riga.., Riga, Latvia
Built in the thirties to commemorate Latvian independence, it's a puzzle why the Soviets didn't tear down Milda when they took over in 1940. During the Soviet era, a running joke was that the monument was a travel agency, because anyone who dared place flowers at its base got a free, one-way ticket to Siberia.
