Yalta, 1906-1917 -- The family album ("Kuda, kuda..." - Sobinov !)
Actually, the album has not been made until the medium of YT allowed me and encouraged to do this now, in digital format.

continues to this day. In about 1812, the gardens, which were originally named Ķeizardārzs, were opened to the public, and so became the first public garden in Riga. In 1923, they were renamed after Viesturs, the Latvian ruler of Tērvete. During the Nazi occupation the park was named in honour of Otto von Hindenburg.
