Latvia lures tourists with mirror river house
This mirror cabin hangs over the river
and is the latest attraction for Latvian tourists
seeking a quiet place close to nature
Location: Amata
The glasshouse dangles on cables
and can move across the river
It has proven very popular with visitors
despite lacking modern amenities
like a toilet or a shower
(SOUNDBITE) (Latvian) MIRROR CABIN GUEST, JANA HERBSTA, WITH HER PARTNER, KALVIS KALNINS, SAYING:
“You naturally connect with the river, with the forest, and sometimes even with the animals. During the first night that we slept here, there was a moment when there were loud noises all of a sudden in the middle of the night. Someone just wandered across the river. Do you remember? We definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to experience something new.”
