Valmiera is the core city of the Vidzeme region in northern Latvia, situated on the banks of the river Gauja, about 100 kilometers from the capital Riga, and is one of the country's important industrial and transportation hubs. The city has a long history, having been an important commercial stronghold in medieval times, and retains historical buildings such as the neo-Gothic St. Simon's Church. As the administrative center of the Viseme region, Valmiera has an economy based on machine building, food processing and timber industry, while gradually developing eco-tourism based on the natural beauty of the surrounding area. There is a wealth of cultural activities in the region, and the annual Valmiera Summer Music Festival attracts many visitors, making it an ideal destination to experience Latvia's blend of tradition and modernity.
