Top Playgrounds in Riga

I recommend checking out the playgrounds on weekdays instead of weekends; it gets super busy on those days. We went on a Thursday morning and it was way more relaxed!

I suggest wearing comfortable shoes if you're planning to walk around a lot. The area is bigger than it looks and my feet were killing me by the end of the day!

I recommend visiting late afternoon, around 4 PM, when the sun is lower and it's not too crowded yet. I had way more space to enjoy the swings and slides!

I recommend checking out the food options before you get too settled in. They have some cool snacks, but we missed out on the hot chocolate because we didn't explore first!

My advice is to bring some snacks and drinks. There are no shops right next to the playground, and it can get expensive if you’re buying from nearby cafes. Plus, the kids will appreciate some quick munchies while playing!

I suggest visiting Spelu Laukums on a weekday around 10 AM. It was a lot less crowded then, and the kids could enjoy the playground without being rushed. The vibes are super chill!
