For a really interesting experience we suggest you sign up for a tour of the tunnels at the Kiek in de Kök tower (yeah, we know it sounds dirty). The underground passages are something you won't soon forget. You can traverse the tunnel network inside a small rail cart, bombarded by sounds and images from Tallinn's long and complex past.

The Ruins of Pirita Monastery

The Pirita convent is old – the main building dates back to 1436. While the Old Town was safely huddled behind its sturdy stone walls, Pirita monastery was pillaged in 1577 by the infamous Ivan the Terrible. The ruins of the old convent are a sight to behold, with iconic Gothic gables a defining feature of the Pirita district.

Go far enough West and the gigantic shopping centres and flashy suburban homes give way to village scenes from “Asterix”. Much of Estonia's history is linked to the rural way of life. A large portion of the population used to live in farms and homesteads until the Soviet annexation of the country in 1939. Get educated about it all here.

It's certainly not as impressive as some of the others we've seen, but that's kind of the point. As the dwindling number of visitors means that the place has to work extra hard to improve the living conditions of the animals. Some of the cages have a very distinct Soviet feel to them. So go ahead and visit it. Do it for the snakes.
