    Great video. The most impressive thing about Dresden is that almost every "historic" building you see, is in reality barely 10 years old. It was all reconstructed in the last decades (except for a few churches and palaces which barely survived the war). The Frauenkirche on which you are standing at 4:00 was built and completed in 2007 as well as the whole old town square with its buildings. And even the very few buildings which survived the war, were left as burned out ruins until the 1990s. The East German government obviously didn't reconstruct the city and even replaced the former old town quarters with socialist panel buildings and tower blocks. But Dresden is of course still a very small shadow of its former self. The city was named as one of the pearls of Europe and Europes most beautiful city. But even with the reconstructions, its far away from that title today... Luckily there are even new reconstruction projects for the city. The city council plans to reconstruct a small palace and a part of the old town on the other bank of the river. The reconstruction of Dresden is still an ongoing process...

    I realize I didn’t fully explain in the video why Riga became my least favorite destination at that point, so I’ll try to clarify now. I visited Riga from November 6th to 9th, 2022, right in the cold season. I had packed accordingly, but I wasn’t prepared for the atmosphere during that time. Since Riga is an international city with a sizable population, I expected there to be plenty of activities, events, and people around. I was dead wrong. The Old Town, which is usually bustling with tourists (as you can see from this video), was practically deserted. To make matters worse, the weather was bleak, which, I admit, was partly my fault for visiting in that season. However, this gloomy weather made it hard to appreciate Riga's beautiful architecture, which just didn’t shine in all its glory. I was excited to experience a bit of the "Soviet Winter" type of thing, but it just wasn't it. Out of all the countries I had visited up till then, Latvia was the ONLY one that I was happy leaving from...until now.

      You visited Riga, not all Latvia. We speak Latvian, not ruzzian, soviet immigrants are a different story so the beginning of the video was probably for them... And it's Northern Europe, so the weather is...4 different seasons.

    There are definitely a lot more boring capitals than Helsinki ! All the designated capitals like Canberra, Ottawa, Brasilia. I am not sure how interesting Washington DC is beyond the Capitol, White House and Lincoln Memorial .. The fickleness and entitlement of tourists and expats .. So Barcelona and Italy are overcrowded with overtourism ? There are no locals left in Venice or Amsterdam ? Victims of tourist traps and rip offs ? Thus Helsinki, a city not only catering for tourists is boring. Yes the language is almost impossible and many cultural and entertainment may be less accessible .l, but there is a lot of culture, design and architecture in Helsinki. Nordic ciries tend to be more spaced and quiet than southern cities. A thing might be that Finns are notoriously introvert and reserved (males especially). They add another layer on the concept of 'Swedish solitude' . The fall and winter darkness and gloom is also a thing to take into account..

    Кренгольмская мануфактура лишь один из множества индустриальных предприятий, которые закрылись после распада СССР. Однажды мы считали сколько предприятий закрылись и насчитали около 70. При этом закрылись практически одновременно и была ужасающая безработица в 90ых годах. А пособие по безработице тогда не платили. В то время было много суицидов от безвыходного положения. По соседству со мной женщина убила своих 4 детей и себя. Много мужчин уехали за границу на заработки и забыли о семьях. Это было очень тяжелое время. Я помню как несколько лет главной моей мечтой было поесть до сыта. А я работала по 10-12 часов каждый день, но после оплаты за квартиру, не наемную, а свою, денег практически не оставалось. Но я была рада, что имею хоть какую то работу. Тогда эстонские политики сказали, что будем есть картофельные очистки, но будем свободными. Однако картофельные очистки ели не они, а люди далекие от политики. В результате бандитизм и проституция в то время стали нормой.
