Curling is thought to have originated in the medieval times in Scotland where it was played by pushing rocks on frozen lakes. The object of the game is to slide heavy granite stones down the ice towards a target, aiming to get the stone as close to the target as possible. Once you've let the stone go, your teammates brush the ice to direct it. It may sound easy, but curling is a tactical game and you'll need to knock the opposing team's stones out of the way to win.
This modern, professional curling rink is located a 15-minute drive from central Riga and boasts free WiFi and an on-site café and bar.
