Tallinn mixes medieval walls and towers with wooden suburbs, a seaside park palace and one of the most digital cities of Europe.
Walk the Lower Town to the Town Hall Square, climb to Toompea for the views, and follow the town wall with its towers. Visit Kumu and Kadriorg Palace in the park Peter the Great built, the Seaplane Harbour by the sea, the Estonian Open Air Museum in the west, and Vabamu, the museum of occupations and freedom. See the Danse Macabre in St Nicholas' Church, now a museum. In the evening, try the old Kalamaja district with its wooden houses and the Telliskivi creative city.
