Torchlight Procession

Traditional Lāpu gājiens (Torchlight Procession) took place yesterday late evening in Riga and was devoted to the 91st anniversary of independence of Latvia.
Usually it begins next to Karlis Ulmanis, then heads to Occupation museum and ends at Freedom monument.
Hundreds of patriots carrying a torch are led by Latvian nationalists' party.
