Where in Latvia is this?

(I’m assuming this is Latvia)

"Iela" means "street" in Latvian, so yeah.

Speaking of, my favorite street in Riga is Lielā iela. If for nothing else, then just for how that name sounds. But also "lielā" (feminine of "liels") means "big", but Lielā iela ("Big Street") is tiny, just one car wide (for the most part) and is barely even visible on the map.
