Well I've already arrived in Tallinn Estonia and nothing it's been two and a half hours on the ferry
The truth is that it's quite comfortable well without any problems and now the goal is to get all the way to
My hotel which I have no idea where it is and from there start exploring a bit the city
It's six in the evening so I think I have a couple more hours of daylight left
but okay I have part of today I have part of tomorrow like tha
I think it will give us enough time because it's not a very big city but then again
If you think the Baltic republics are cheap they are but Tallinn is not
Tallinn is like a bubble here in Estonia because so many people come from outside
from Helsinki or even from Stockholm because here everything is alcohol and everything is more expensive
cheap many people come to spend the day smuggling basically they buy
alcohol tobacco and everything else and they become even this is what Alex told me from Rutas
Alex who many even come to get their hair cut here because of the difference in price
It's good man I guess they'll do more things along the way but hey that's already something
The fact that tourism has grown so much that with such high demand prices have gone up
The prices of everything so the hotels are just as expensive as in Helsinki and a bit less
I'm already in the hotel room where I'm staying tonight which is the Tallinn
Inn Hotel or something like that a bit redundant but you get the idea it looks good it's located a
Right here after this endless curtain that's the Radisson Parking by Radisson
Yes it's curious because the reception is in a building but the rooms are in a different one
They're like in apartments but okay it's fine I mean it's a room
Little one it's not much but it's a single twin bed and at least this is a double bed
It has its own bathroom unlike yesterday's one at the Euro Hostel which wasn't bad honestly
It was very good but this one is also good because having a private bathroom is
Perfect so nothing else I'm going to rest a bit because I don't know if I told you well no
I've told you but I've had a pretty bad foot for a few weeks I must have
The bone I have some holes and such a lot of sprains well I have a
I have a pretty serious injury on my foot and it hurts to walk so well but I didn't want to
Losing this trip for nothing so nothing I just take it a little more seriously
Stay calm so I'm really taking it very calmly but that I'm going to rest
A little because if not I won't finish the trip and that's it then we'll visit Tayin for a while
This restaurant is completely medieval it looks really good although I do say that it's so super
It's touristy and nothing more everything is decorated everyone the waitresses wear medieval costumes
Everything is also served in a medieval way the truth is it's very curious that's for sure
Look I said some sticks there are very interesting things I have asked it will be moose meat and also
Pork there was bear meat but it was really expensive a steak was 50 euros
Okay so let's leave the bears alone for now and try the rest and I'll tell you how it goes
I just had dinner at Old Hans it's really good I mean you have to say that
He ate much better today than yesterday in Helsinki the meat was super delicious I think it was from a local restaurant
Better the moose one but both that one and the boar one and all the mix tha
They have it with wine and such it's really good that's for sure expensive I mean in the end then the desser
It was a small cake with cinnamon and I don 't know what else in total about 45-47 euros
I'm going for a nighttime walk around the streets of Old Town Tallinn
I'm going back to the hotel and will rest now and I'll start early tomorrow The city isn't very big
But anyway it has enough to make a few laps
Here is the Estonian parliament which is housed in the Tumpea Castle or Tumpea as it is known
It's pronounced and it's a super cool building because the facade is pink
It is a building that has always been used in recent
centuries to house the power of this part of Europe
These countries the Baltic states Estonia Latvia Lithuania as you know
ey belonged to the Russian Empire and have always been transferred between hands in fact after
After World War II Germany controlled this area until
years later when it was able to gain independence
Here is another building that is one of my favorites well I think of almost everyone's
The world passing through here which is the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral similar it has the same name
at is in Sofia Bulgaria but this one is really beautiful actually it is from the 19th century
It was built between 1894 and 1900 and was considered for destruction after it was completed
e Russian Empire era it was considered to destroy this cathedral in order to get rid of the
No one remembers what the Russian Empire was and fortunately not only was it not destroyed bu
It has been completely renovated and looks incredible to this day
In this area of Tumpea called Tumruti street and this is Kotu well this is the place
e area you have for me well in general the best view of the city the balcony
It's right next to the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral and the parliament and such
Well everything is very close here there's actually another small church here
Look how well the walls surrounding the entire city are preserved this part here
These little balconies are amazing in fact you can walk on them the ones that connect these
Here are the towers the eastern passage I just passed through which is next to the church
It's amazing really like being transported back in time plus
Very few people enter that way and perfectly maintain the essence and architecture
From the medieval and just area as you exit through that passage you arrive again at another area of
The walls see there with the bridges and such and they are setting up a market here like that
I suppose this will be at least on weekends a market set up here
With typical souvenirs clothes and all kinds of memorabilia
