LiveRigaFebruary 12, 2014One of the most beautiful places, set in a semicircle of greenery, is a hill built over the former Sand Bastion. Beautiful stone embankments with small cascades and waterfalls resemble mountain river.Upvote14Downvote- Maria IlievaDecember 3, 2013Amazing outdoor place especially during the Summer and Autumn!

Delna Sabiedrība Par AtklātībuMay 22, 2012Notikusi nelikumīga būvniecība. Veiktie darbi nav uzskatāmi par vecās kaskādes remontu, kas tur bija paredzēti, bet gan par pamatīgu pārbūvi, kas veikta bez nepieciešamās saskaņošanas.

"I wouldn't go there myself, but kids want it occasionally. Plus, it is one of the rare places in Riga where you can get takeaway coffee without going inside: at the little window. Great with a baby!"
