Tallinn Festival-1227

Tallinn is the Capital of The Republic of Estonia and lies in the north east corner of the Baltic Sea, in Northern Europe. It shares borders with Latvia and Russia and is across the Baltic Sea from Sweden and Finland..

.

The city is a mixture of medieval and modern, with narrow, cobbled streets set beneath the spires of 14th-century churches, and a wild mix of restaurants, cafés, boutiques and nightclubs hidden in the carved stone walls..

.

Every five years, tens of thousands of Estonians gather in Tallinn in the summertime to take part in the Song and Dance Festival. The number of participants in the Song Festival can reach upto 30 thousand. The Dance Festival is usually held on the same weekend as the Song Festival. These two festivals commence with a united festive parade through the city from the centre of Tallinn to the Song Festival Grounds. In 2014 the festival took place between 4th and 6th July..
