delectable old town of tallinn pt.2

…And more about that charming old town of Tallinn in Estonia (following the part 1 tour (link here) and cruise to Estonia (link here) posts). Like many other older cities, Tallinn also has tramway, which is a great way to see the wider city. Almost the whole old town has ben restored and it’s just so beautiful and peaceful everywhere. Combined with a stay in a nice spa Tallinn really is a holiday for all senses!
