of Estonia, is unique in terms of its medieval
Old Town, characterized by narrow, curved streets
and tiled roofs. First records about Tallinn date
back to the beginning of the last millennium.
During its long and eventful history, Tallinn has
been a remarkable centre of craftsmen, artists
and merchants in Europe, belonging to the
Hanseatic League.
In Tallinn, the
weather is usually mild in the beginning of
October, averaging 10–12 °C in daytime.
