Talinn

📌 Our last stop in the Baltics, we had heard great things about Talinn and it did not disappoint. Talinn was probably our favourite stop of this trip and potentially one of the nicest old towns we have seen in Europe so far. The town was magical, it felt very medieval, the beauty was also enhanced by the day we had snow!

📌 Talinn was a great place for food and drinks, we ate our way through delicious sweets, great wine and beer and some warming comfort food. The culinary highlight was dining at Old Hansa, a medieval themed restaurant which was similar to the one we visited in Riga. This experience however was unique in that the whole place was lit by candles, the building felt very old and authentic (including the toilets) and the food was very unique! Chloe had a spiced lamb dish whilst I ate a variety of sausages; veal, black pork blood sausage and a game sausage of boar, elk and bear!

📌 The Christmas market was again beautiful, the walking tour was interesting and fun, particularly given that it was very snowy. We also visited an interesting banned book museum, a pour your own wine, wine bar and one of the oldest pharmacy's in Europe.Läs mer
