Old Town of Tallinn
Estonia’s most popular tourist destination is our unique capital Tallinn that gained its city rights in 1248. The beautiful Old Town with its fascinating medieval architecture – single Gothic style Town Hall in Scandinavian and Baltic countries, noteworthy sections of medieval fortification wall, four medieval churches, romantic cobblestone streets – is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Lot of restaurations works have been done and are going on almost all year round. Any tourist can easily find high class restaurants, cosy cafes for different tastes, numerous souvenir and other shops.
In the Old Town we have 11 high class hotels.
Adjacent to the Old Town the modern city is developing, connecting the historical past wit the 21th century. During the last decade several new highrises have appeared – mostly comfortable hotels, up-to-date banks as well as many shopping centres. Lot of street and road reconstruction has taken place, parks have been well taken care of, being now more clean and secure. On the other hand it would be interesting to compare newer buildings with wholly or partially preserved Soviet period pieces of architecture.
The suburbs of Tallinn
Besides Old and new city centre Tallinn has various suburbs. Some of them are green areas with numerous private homes from various decades of the past, other newer ares with big apartment buildings and businesses. Many suburb hotels can offer very good relationship between price and quality.
