“I got a chance to go by a cruise ship From Helsinki to Estonia along with my friends in September 2011. We took the Viking Line cruise from Helsinki Port. It’s a 3 hour journey from Helsinki to Tallinn and vice-versa.”

On board, we have restaurants, bars, excellent duty-free shops , gym,entertainments like music and so on.

I did not know much about this place, before visiting the beautiful city.

Estonia is a small country near Russia. The old town of Tallinn is a wonderful medieval city which is well preserved. We can see a lot of city walls made of Limestone. Tallinn is also considered as Estonia’s cultural hub. Most of the streets are paved with cobblestone.

The cobblestone streets are lined with medieval homes and ancient churches.

There were plenty of little Inn’s and guest houses within the Old Town, where you can look for your accomodation.

2-3 days would be a good itinerary:

Some places to see:

• The Old City
• Saint Olaf’s church
• History Museum
• Kadriong palace and Kadriong park
• Lennusadam

• Alexander Nevsky Cathedral
