Abava Valley

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE : Latvia's Abava River flows through the Kurzeme region in the western part of the country. In this video, contributor Eaglewood Films gives us an aerial view of the Abava River Valley, which forms part of the route of the historical road from Riga to the historical region of Prussia (once part of Germany, now largely part of Poland). Prepare to be amazed by the bird's eye view of this area which helped to cement historical ties between Latvia and Northern Germany, ties which helped propel Latvia's economic boom in the post Soviet era.
