Tallin
Step back in time in Tallin
Tallinn’s paved alleys, piercing steeples and barrel-shaped towers are straight out of a fairy tale.
It isn’t a city preserved in aspic though: gleaming cafés and bars contribute to a restless energetic atmosphere, and year round cultural attractions and a great club culture make it the perfect city for a weekend break.
