Tallinn

Estonia’s capital on the Baltic Sea contains a wealth of stimulating historical places and activities for visitors. From its noble 13th‐century Town Hall Square in the picturesque walled city to its enormous, ultramodern maritime museum, Tallinn offers a fresh, enlightening, and amusing setting for the artistically inclined; concerts take place in many archetypal and evocative locales, including the ruins of the old convent, a host of glorious churches, and the beauteous and versatile Estonian National Opera. With its fine museums, nostalgic narrow lanes, open‐feeling green spots and seaside promenades, Tallinn at dusk invites strollers in to hear a distinguished orchestra or a romantic opera.
