Riga
golden hour today
Golden hour in Riga is the warm, low-sun window just after sunrise and just before sunset — the best light for portraits, landscapes and travel photography. Here are today's exact golden hour times, plus blue hour, sunrise and sunset.
At this latitude, summer brings extraordinarily long twilight — golden hour can stretch for two hours or more, and on midsummer nights blue hour barely fades into true night. Plan for "midnight sun" mood.
