Tallinn boasts the kind of stunning chocolate box old town that Disney executives can only dream of, all cobbles, castles and church spires, laced with an eye-catching smorgasbord of medieval and baroque architecture.
Estonia's capital city, tucked right up at the northeastern extremity of Europe on the shores of the Baltic Sea, has been hailed as the ‘New Prague' and justifiably so, though it is more compact and easier to get around.
On the fringes of the old core a new district is emerging, with gleaming new hotels and offices, as Estonia thrives in the EU membership it attained in 2004. Anyone arriving in Tallinn with anachronistic images of what an old Soviet Bloc city should look like will be as surprised by this new skyline as they will be by the charming old core.
Russian orthodox churches and Dominican monasteries share the streets with old merchant houses and medieval meeting halls, and Tallinn's atmospheric Old Town, steeped in history, is best explored on foot.
Art and culture in Tallinn is taken as seriously by locals as the fun-filled and unpretentiously raucous nightlife, with the recently city named European Capital of Culture for 2011.
