Таллин

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.
