Great view from this monument of Soviet-style architecture. Easy to reach by bus. On the way there (or back) stop by at the Pirita monastery ruins next to the Olympic regatta stadium.

There is also a restaurant on top. The views are fantastic, the place - eh - interesting display of Soviet architecture. The place has interesting history related to 1991 Soviet coup attempt, with bullet holes still as evidence.

Try out restaurant Bocca. It is located in Olevimägi 9, in the old city. Very good food and friendly service.

This place screams for you to dress colorful - everything inside is white. Cool atmosphere in the trendy sense of the word. Good food, something for everyone and for a reasonable price.

Loomaaed is Tallinn's zoo, which has one of the Northern Europe's widest selection of animals. You can access Loomaaed by public transportation. If I recall correctly the bus number 5 goes via Loomaaed.

Buses 21, 21b and 22 go to the Zoo.

But the best way is trolleybus number 6

This is something really weird, something Finnish. This is a shop, where you can buy alcohol and cheaper that it is in Finland. But that isn't worth going there...that building really looks like a pig house and staff is smoking next to the main door...it was something totally strange.

kaisa
kaisaloves Tallinn because Fast growing city - cool architecture, some nice shopping and good food! Try the Pepper Sack in the old city. Huge portions and reasonable prices. You can see a sword fight if you go around dinner time :)

A very nice chinese restaraunt (probably the only one in the center of Tallinn) - cheap and tasty.

There is a Garlic Restaurant just near the main square! Haven't been there, coz we didn't have enough time, but I'm sure this place is worth visiting))) they even have garlic ice-cream on the menu...=)

Milla. from Finland wrote about Double Coffee 4 years, 6 months ago

A lovely coffee bar. I especially liked the idea of having many different kinds of snacks and foods in addition to coffee. So many cafes have a very limited amount of choices what you can have with your cup of coffee. I liked the variety.
