Unforgettable City Views

 

A fantastic way to get a feel for Tallinn is to head to one of the city's many excellent view spots. In fact, there are a lot of creative ways to get sweeping panoramas of the Old Town and city centre, charming views of Medieval streets and rooftops, or spectacular glimpses of the Tallinn shoreline. Enjoy the views when taking an uphill walk, beach side stroll, while exploring a museum or zipping coffee in a restaurant.
