community i don't know what it is so there's also you see the tower over there yeah it's also an abandoned church and they sometimes they hold events there and various exhibitions of local artists so we we don't leave you know the abandoned places behind we use them sometimes that's why they abandoned a lot of churches like this actually no idea take a lot of money to build these churches it's expensive and they are beautiful maybe i think a few of them were too damaged to get renovated okay yeah only the exterior was left behind but the inside was you know abandoned quite a while ago so it's too expensive to renew them but it's you know why why demolish it when you can have a nice building standing around okay that is why and many of them were abandoned during the soviet era because okay during the soviet era yeah because we were not allowed to be christians openly yeah so you know we couldn't go to churches we couldn't have our own priests and stuff like that wow we had to be all russian okay so back then what are they worshipping them they had no religion okay basically your only religion was communist party okay yeah he was number one okay yeah we weren't even allowed to celebrate christmas people used to celebrate christmas secretly wow we have this tradition to decorate the christmas tree only on christmas eve because you know we weren't allowed to do it earlier wow it's nice to know it's very interesting i've never had such tin before so that is why it's nice to travel nice to land so during the soviet era era you are not allowed to worship has any religion only the uh communist party party okay okay you have to worship the head of the coming communist party wow i have never heard about that before really all of the soviet countries had to do that so latvia
