From October 1, 2014, all vehicle entrance to Jūrmala city (Latvia) will be free of charge. It will remain free up until March 31, 2015.
It is planned that removing the vehicle entrance fee will increase tourist attraction to Jurmala city, as well as promote local service development and lessen the amount of transit vehicles, thus preventing environment pollution.

Starting October 4, house of the famous Latvian writer Aspazija will be open for visitors. It is important to note that you can visit all of the museums free of charge.
