Feel like a local when you visit Tallinn's charming and medieval Old Town. This well preserved area offers opportunities to capture photos of an enchanting and romantic piece of living history. It's full of galleries, cafes and restaurants. Tallinn became a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site in 1997, and your tour will take you to its city center where you will step out onto its original cobbled stone streets. You'll walk through Lower Old Town streets lined with medieval churches and merchant houses, barns and warehouses. The square includes a Gothic town hall, museums and concert halls. When you look up at the Town Hall Tower you will see a weather vane in the shape of the town's historic guard, Old Thomas. You may have a chance to purchase authentic wool handicrafts as souvenirs. Next, hop on a train for a 15-minute ride to Nõmme, a green 19th century suburb. You'll stroll to the enchanting local market, which has been the town's main shopping hub for more than 100 years. While here, you can enjoy free time getting fresh food from local producers. Afterwards, relax and take in the mesmerizing atmosphere during a coffee break.
