Medieval History
Take your time wandering the lower town of Vanalinn.
Walk up Toompea Hill to take in the spectacular panorama views of the red-roofed town and see the imposing Alexander Nevsky Cathedral.
This industrial complex has been completely repurposed into a trendy bohemian hub filled with local designer shops, indoor studios, and outdoor street art.
Grab lunch at one of the indie food stalls or cafes inside.
Have a relaxing dinner right in the heart of Old Town, perhaps trying traditional Estonian foods or contemporary Baltic cuisine inside a vault-ceilinged restaurant.
Follow it up with a slow walk along the old ramparts before turning in.
