"Tallinn's Old Town is one of the best preserved and intact medieval cities in Europe and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site"
. It was founded in 1248 and was part of the Russian Block until Estonia proclaimed her independence in 1991.
Currently it is a sort of Silicon Valley with more start-up companies per person than anywhere in Europe. Skype was born here.
We joined a free English walking tour for a couple of hours.
A good part of the medieval wall still surrounds the Old Town.
Straight out of a Fairy Tale
Nursery school fieldtrip through the center of town.
The Pastry was some of the best I have ever had...I should have had more...
