A sizeable new piece of street art has appeared in central Riga, in the underpass on Emīlijas Benjamiņas Street near the Central Station. The mural is titled "Riga Atlantis."
The artwork invites passers-by to reconsider the city canal — not merely as a decorative waterway, but as a living ecosystem and a refreshing green oasis within the urban environment. It highlights the canal's role as an important green-blue corridor running through the heart of Riga, linking nature with everyday city life.
The mural was placed in a location with heavy pedestrian and vehicle traffic, making it visible to a wide audience of people who pass through this busy junction near the railway station every day.
