DSC01158, 1980 Olympic Yachting Complex, Tallinn, Estonia

Tallinn, Estonia. There are few places in Europe where the aura of the 14th and 15th centuries survives intact the way they do in Tallinn’s Old Town. It is a jumble of medieval walls and turrets, needing spires and winding cobbled streets. Nevertheless, Estonia’s capital is so modernized that it’s been dubbed “a suburb of Helsinki”. Toompea, the hill on which Tallinn is centered, is a treasure trove to be explored. You will find appealing medieval architecture, historic sites, and Baltic culture to mention but a few characteristics.
