                          About Public Holidays in Latvia

                          Latvia observes Independence Day twice: November 18 for the 1918 declaration and May 4 for the 1990 restoration of independence after Soviet rule - both are full public holidays, distinguishing the original and restored statehood the way several other Baltic states also do on their own separate dates.
