Tallinn: Where Medieval Splendor Meets Modern Charm.

Tallinn, the capital city of Estonia, is a city that embraces both its rich past and the vibrant present, offering a captivating blend of medieval splendor, modern charm, and natural wonders. Tallinn is on the UNESCO World Heritage list due to its exceptional preservation of medieval architecture and urban planning. The Old Town of Tallinn represents an outstanding example of a well-preserved Hanseatic* city, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of the region.

A Hanseatic city refers to a city that was a member of the Hanseatic League, a medieval commercial and defensive alliance of merchant guilds and market towns. The Hanseatic League was active from the 12th to the 17th centuries and consisted of various cities and towns in Northern Europe.
