Ainaži border post
It is quite common to cross the Latvian-Estonian border near Ainaži. For some good drivers, it passes by without even noticing, just see how the road signs change from Latvian into another language. But have you ever crossed this border by the old Ainaži road, going straight through the centre of Ainaži, which suddenly turns into a country road on the west coast of Estonia?
The old black and white border post from 1919, when the border between Estonia and Latvia was drawn, is preserved right here on the Estonia-Latvia border.
