I took the ferry from Helsinki in Finland to the Baltics in June 2012 after a two-hour journey. The northernmost country in the Baltics is Estonia with around 1.3 million inhabitants. Estonia is located approximately 80 kilometers south of Helsinki and borders Russia to the east, Latvia to the south and the Baltic Sea to the north. The state has been independent from Russia again since 1991 and has been a member of the EU since 2004. In 2011, Estonia became the first Baltic state to adopt the euro.

Estonia has a predominantly northern European climate and almost 50% of the country's territory is forested. The population consists of 70% Estonians, 25% Russians and additionally some minorities such as Ukrainians and Belarusians.

The country's largest cities include Tallinn, Tartu, Narva, Kohtla-Jarve and Parnu.

The capital and largest city of Estonia is Tallinn with around 450,000 inhabitants. The Parliament of the Republic and the seat of government are located on Toompea Hill. This mountain rises 48 meters above the lower city, where most of the city's population lives. Both parts of the city are surrounded by an approximately 2.3 kilometer long city wall. The city wall is also the city's most important attraction. Within these city walls are two important monasteries, one of the Dominicans and one of the Cistercians. Tallinn Cathedral and the Russian Orthodox Alexander Nevsky Cathedral with its colorful onion domes are also located on Toompea. There are several churches in the lower town, such as the St. Nicholas Church, the Olai Church or the Holy Spirit Church.

The Augustinian monastery is also located outside the city wall.

Tallinn's 314 meter high TV tower offers the best views in the city, even as far as the Finnish coast on clear days.

For me, the Old Town of Tallinn is one of the most beautiful city centers in Europe and was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1997. With its many restaurants and beer gardens, it is a major attraction for local and international visitors. Basically, tourism is one of the city's most important economic sectors and will therefore continue to expand in the next few years.

During my two-day stay in Tallinn, I took a bus tour lasting several hours to all the city's attractions as well as various walking tours in the impressive old town. The many beautiful towers that tower over the entire city were particularly impressive. Tallinn has a very cozy atmosphere and is always super pleasant for foreign visitors. Just sitting for hours with a coffee in the old town was really exciting and fascinating for me, even if it was unexpectedly not very cheap.

Estonia, with its unique landscape and the pulsating capital Tallinn, is an absolute travel recommendation from me and definitely worth a trip, especially in the summer months.
