Visit to Estonia

Just because I could, I took the ferry from Helsinki to Estonia for a Sunday exploring the fascinating historic city of Tallinn. I visited many museums to learn about the long history of this region of Europe and the city of Tallinn, including the Great Guild Hall, the Estonian Theatre and Music Museum, Kalev Marzipan Museum, Tallinn Town Wall and St Nicholas' Church and Museum.

As well as exploring the old city, I took the tram to see the house of Peter The Great where a museum is now housed, and the Kadriorg Palace and Art Museum.
