Travel to Tallinn
If you’re planning a visit to Estonia, then spending some time in Tallinn is almost mandatory. Located on the shores of the Gulf of Finland, the Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This city is also consistently ranked as one of the top 10 digital cities in the world today. Here are just some ways you can step outside and enjoy what Tallinn has to offer.
Estonian Open Air Museum
After you’ve explored the Old Town, make your way west to explore this museum. It preserves many of the aspects of rural Estonian culture, with a farmstead from 1700s available to tour. There’s also a water mill, chapel, and an old stone sauna amongst several other structures.
St. Olaf’s Church
It is believed that this church was the tallest building in the world for nearly 100 years beginning in the mid-16th century. The church itself was first built in the 1200s and remarkably it has been Catholic, Lutheran, and now Baptist. It is still actively used, so you’ll want to call ahead for a tour. The tower of the church was even used by the KGB until 1991 for surveillance.
The City Walls
The city walls often offer temporary garden exhibits and hiking trails to enjoy and because they are for the most part intact, offer a great exploration opportunity. Several gates are still in use throughout the city and towers are sometimes open to give you a unique view of the area. Look for passages to explore throughout the area and secret gems to find.
Tallinn has seen some ups and some downs throughout history, but today you’ll find it to be a beautiful city with something unique for everyone in the family to enjoy. Plan your stay and you will be able to make memories which last for a lifetime.
