Estonia Part 2

This is the last post about my trip to Stockholm, Viljandi and Tallinn. After a few great days in the lovely village of Viljandi my friend and I spent two amazing days in Tallinn, the Estonian capital. It is by far the smallest capital I have seen so far but the size gives it its very own charme. For me the most beautiful part was the medieval old town with its city wall which still is in a remarkably good condition. See for yourself!

This used to be the highest church in the wolrd. Now it is still the highest building in Tallinn

I am very suspicious, though: I think she didn't take me to Viljandi but to Hobbiton! I mean, have a look:
