Ziemeļblāzma, Palace of culture in Northern District, Latvia

The Ziemelblazma Palace stands within a five-hectare park featuring a restored rotunda, mushroom structures, French-style garden, and recreational areas in Riga.

The initial structure from 1903 burned down, leading to a reconstruction in 1914 that incorporated minimal wood materials to prevent future fires.

The palace functions as a cultural center, hosting amateur artist groups, international festivals, and maintaining a branch of the Riga Central Library.

Visitors can reach the palace by taking Bus 2 or 24, or using the electric train to Ziemelblazma station from central Riga.

Non-professional architect Augusts Dombrovskis designed the building with original room layouts that differ from standard architectural practices of that period.
