Stone Path Magic🌳

#hellohalloween Ready to step into a fairytale? 💫 Tallinn’s Old Town is the ultimate medieval time capsule! Picture winding cobblestone streets, ancient merchant houses, and Gothic spires—all wrapped inside city walls built back in the Hanseatic days. Plus, making it UNESCO-certified since 1997 is just the cherry on top!

Must-See Places:
🏰 Wander the famous 13th-century Pikk Street: soak up vibes from the original era.
🌳 Admire the preservation—city walls, watchtowers, and medieval churches dot the skyline!
⛪ Drop by Alexander Nevsky Cathedral (Lossi plats 10, 09:00-18:00), Tallinn’s onion-domed icon—perfect for unique photos against blue skies.
🚶 Hike up to St Olaf’s Church (Lai 50, 10:00-18:00); climb the tower stairs for insane city views!
🛳️ Tip: Take the short ferry from Helsinki for an easy day trip, or—trust me—book a cozy inn and stay a whole week. There’s tons to see between the haunts, courtyards, and cafés. Absolutely no chance you’ll get bored!

Pro tips: Tallinn rewards slow travelers—chill out in shaded squares or grab pastries at hidden bakeries tucked into ancient alleyways. Weather’s sunny most summers, perfect for exploring on foot. The city is super walkable, and old green trees everywhere provide shade (and Instagram ops).

Transport hack: The ferry from Helsinki lands right near Old Town—no taxis needed. Just stroll inland and you’re set!

Food rec: Try the local black bread and mushroom soup at Olde Hansa (Vana turg 1) to complete the medieval mood.

No visa required for most EU/Schengen visitors. Cards are widely accepted. English is spoken almost everywhere. 🗺️
