There's more in Tallinn than just the Medieval Old Town. Locals might actually tell you to get out of there and go see the real Tallinn, be it taking a tram to the funky and bohemian Kalamaja, picturesque Kadriorg or seaside Pirita. Don't get us wrong – we love the Old Town, we just don't want you to think Estonia is a big theme park and all locals sell roasted almonds in baggy clothes. Instead, breathe in the art and culture in the little galleries or visit some of the more alternative sights until they're still here to remind us of the days, like the Soviet concert hall near the harbour or the flea market at the train station.
