Each of us wants, at least for a moment to escape from reality and need to relax, far away from everything and everyone we know. Everyone has to explore an insatiable desire and to satisfy human curiosity. It does not matter whether you arrive by bus, plane, train or car, it's important to get the goal and to transform valuable time in precious memories. Now you do not have to ask - where I could go? - Because the answer is in front of you. The next goal, which will meet your expectations fully, Tallinn.
If you want to see old experiences with comforts of the modern world and if you want to combine rich cultural scene, Tallinn is a perfect place for you.

With half a million inhabitants, Tallinn is the capital and largest city of Estonia. This perfect place covers an area of 159.2 km2and located on the northern coast of the country, on the shores of the Gulf of Finland its bound aries extend south of Helsinki, east of Stockholm and west of Saint Petersburg. Tallinn is a city with two faces - old and new part of town. Old Town is a UNESCO historic monument of culture, because it is a wonderful place with authentic buildings and stone cube places where every bar and shop has such an old spirit. Hanseatic architecture is recognizable Tallinn's medieval old town. Some streets and houses were built so far, the 11th century.

What I'm saying is that the old town is full of walls, parts of the former Cathedral systems and castles. The new part of town is urban compared with the old and the modern center is in line with global standards. There are wonderful shopping malls, office buildings and urban environments, which are worth seeing. So if you decide to visit Tallinn do not forget to bring a clock or are you confused and lost in time. It seems the day lasted until 11.00 clock. The most amazing and most of all interesting thing is, the idea of such a long day because the sun disappears, only 2 to 3 hours. This town is small and that is the reason why the tourist areas are safe and easily explored on foot. Tallinn has a humid continental climate with warm summers and cold, but snowy winters - you can this city, if you want, you can visit
