TRIP TO TALLIN





Trip to Tallin was most exciting. It started from mikeli bus station.we were all together ten people including two Russian guys from information technology. It was the my first experience to tallin and in the ship as well. We went to Tallin by the the ship of Finland Viking line . It was a big ship including a super market, bar, pob, restaurant and other different various things. It was a really big and good ship. We have had really nice time in ship.


We have an apartment in the ship which was good and includes all the facilities inside like television phone etc. specially I found that many fins people goes to Tallin to buys wines because Estonia is really cheaper than Finland.


Estonia is a beautiful city. Especially the old city of Estonia is very beautiful lots of houses built in in the previous centuries. it gives the feeling like of real Europe and they are famous in the world too.


This area was once a separate town (Dom zu Reval), the residence of the Chivalry of Estonia, Cathilicbishop of Tallinn (until 1561) , occupying an easily defensible site overlooking the surrounding districts. The major attractions are the walls and various bastions of Castrum Danarum, the Russian Arthodox Alexander Nevsky cathedral (built during the period of Russian empire, the church was built on a site that formerly housed a statue of Martin Luther) and the Lutheran Cathedral (Toomkirik) and the old Estonian Royal Palace now the Parliament building.


We visited the old town of Estonia for about 3 hours it is not a big city we can visit whole the city in one day. During our visit the climate of the Estonia was snowing temperature was also like minus five.
