2-Day Trip to Tallinn – A Fairytale Blend of Medieval Charm and Modern Vibes

#hellohalloween
Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, is where medieval magic meets modern creativity — a city that feels like stepping into a fairytale yet hums with innovation.
Day 1 – Old Town Charm:
Start your day wandering through Viru Gate into the cobbled streets of Tallinn Old Town, one of Europe’s best-preserved medieval centers. Admire the colorful merchant houses and the gothic Town Hall Square, then climb St. Olaf’s Church for stunning panoramic views of the red rooftops and the Baltic Sea. Wander up to Toompea Hill, home to Alexander Nevsky Cathedral and the Estonian Parliament, before pausing at Kohtuotsa Viewpoint for the city’s most iconic skyline shot. Lunch at a traditional café serving Estonian dishes like elk soup or rye bread platters. In the evening, dine at Olde Hansa, a medieval-themed restaurant with candlelight, music, and hearty feasts that transport you back centuries.
Day 2 – Creative & Coastal Vibes:
Spend your morning exploring Telliskivi Creative City, a former industrial area turned into a hub of street art, boutique shops, and cozy coffee spots. Visit the Seaplane Harbour Museum, where you can step aboard a real submarine or marvel at seaplanes suspended mid-air. Later, head to the Noblessner Port, Tallinn’s chic seaside district, for a seafood lunch with a Baltic breeze. In the afternoon, stroll through Kadriorg Park and visit the baroque Kadriorg Palace, built by Peter the Great. End your trip in the Rotermann Quarter, where modern architecture meets history, and enjoy one last coffee before sunset.
Tallinn’s mix of old-world romance and youthful creativity makes it one of Northern Europe’s most captivating weekend escapes.#tallinn #visitestonia #oldtowntallinn #balticbeauty #weekendgetaway #europetravel #solotravel #hiddengemseurope
