The streets in Tallin are pretty narrow. This is as wide that my lens goes to get the whole building in the frame.

Tallinn is the best preserved medieval city in Northern Europe boasting Gothic spires, winding cobblestone streets and enchanting architecture.
Once a home to wealthy merchants settling from Germany, Denmark and beyond, Tallinn Old Town today is enjoyed by locals and visitors alike, with restaurants, bars, museums and galleries bringing much life to this historical city centre.
Unlike many other capital cities in Europe, Tallinn has managed to wholly preserve its structure of medieval and Hanseatic origin. Due to its exceptionally intact 13th century city plan, the Old Town was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997, joining the ranks of the world’s most recognised landmarks. Here you'll find original cobblestone streets dotted with medieval churches and grandiose merchant houses, barns and warehouses many of which date back to the Middle Ages.

A small group of Estonian Pilgrims immigrated to escape oppression and settled in Northern Wi. Sadly the services only lasted for 50 years and closed in 1964. this Estonian church was the first to be built in North America and was established in 1907 and dedicated in 1914 by founding fathers Johan Wiltein, George Tutt, and Albert Sommi.
We did a one day cruise to Tallinn, Estonia from Helsinki. Tallinn is a wonderful old city, great to visit.

Estonian Song and Dance Celebration is the local signature event and a reason why Estonians are often referred to as the “singing nation”. The uniqueness of this mesmerising event has even earned the song and dance celebration a place at UNESCO's prestigious list of Intangible Cultural Heritage.
This delightful young lady was merrily playing a recorder for the entertainment of the mainly tourists in Tallinn, Estonia. Was she perhaps, hoping to attract a knight in shining armour ? However her lovely music & demure appearance certainly attracted a good audience.

Kolga Manor.
From 1230, the estate belonged to the Cistercian Order. In 1581, Swedish king John III gave Kolga and the land around it to the famous Swedish general Pontus de la Gardie.
Kolga obtained its current appearance in the 1820s, when the previous building was completely reconstructed as a stylish Classicist palace. From the end of the 17th century to the summer of 2014, the manor has belonged to the same noble family – the Stenbocks.
Despite the fact that many of its buildings are in ruins, the manor complex still makes a majestic impression.
