Čiekurkalns (German: Schreienbusch) is a neighbourhood of the Northern District of Riga, the capital of Latvia.[1] It is located on the southwestern shore of Lake Ķīšezers.

In April 2014, the new building of the State Revenue Service of Latvia was unveiled at Talejas iela 1 in Čiekurkalns.[2][3][4][5]

The building of the railway station of the same name, which serves the Riga–Lugaži Railway along the southern limits of the neighbourhood, stands in the Teika neighbourhood.
