LOCKDOWN (feels like) | Riga, Latvija
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Top AirVuz contributor Jurgis Kreilis / FilmDay brings us this excellent drone video from the historic city of Riga, Latvia. Shot during the COVID-19 pandemic, the video will take you over some of the most well-known sites of this former Hanseatic League city on the Baltic Sea. At the :30 mark, you'll see the Freedom Monument statue, which was built in the 1930's and commemorates the Latvian War of Independence of 1918-20. At the :54 shot, there's a marvelous shot flying over the city's Old Town and looking towards the Daugva River.

- Report
Just a year ago, on 11 March 2020, the World Health Organization declared a COVID-19 pandemic. It has been only a year, but lots has happened. To limit the spread of COVID-19, self-isolation, quarantine, curfews and even complete movement restrictions, or "lokdown," were introduced in various cities and countries around the world. Latvia and Riga have not yet had a full lockdown, but there are days when it feels like lockdown in Riga. Hopefully, full movement restrictions will never be introduced. Stay safe!
