The museum also hosts the annual “KUMU ÖÖ” – a mini festival of sorts where the building stays open all night as guests inside dance until sunrise.

Once you've reached the high ground and have actually found the platform, you'll witness a sea of odd-looking red rooftops, grey guard towers and beautiful spires, as well as the modern Tallinn skyline in the distance. If you can't see the highrises, then it means you're on the wrong platform. But keep trying, you'll get there. Eventually.

Park of Kadriorg

The reason why the Kadriorg park is different is because the Russian Czar, Peter came over and reckoned the local way of doing parks was totally wrong and taught the local savages – the German landlords – how to use a drawing board. In fact, we can't think of other parks in the country that have this much symmetry to them.

For nighttime entertainment we suggest you to investigate the posters outside to get a better idea of what's happening. Von Krahl is a theatre and they do have self produced alternative plays for people who are, say, not so much interested in the contents of a bottle but rather the character of it.

Rotermann Quarter

What makes the Rotermann quarter such an atmospheric place is the old factories that have been skilfully and thoughtfully rejuvenated with ultra-modern architecture. The transition between old and new is almost seamless, in a way that we haven't seen in many other cities. Fans of contemporary design will find this place fascinating.

If it's a good view you're after, you'll be happy to know you can climb the church's spire, which offers a 360-degree view of Tallinn. You'll have to pay a small admission fee, but the view is worth it. Did you know that the St. Olaf's church used to be the tallest building in the world (though only for 76 years) 'til the Eiffel Tower was built.

If navigating a crowded beach and lying in the sun tickle your fancy then that's the place. You can also head to the beach club for a drink and some shade. For romance, sunset walks are highly recommended but be aware that the furthest areas of the beach are for nudists. So don't be surprised if a naked guy runs by and ruins your date.

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.

You'll get a true medieval experience in St Catherine's passage, but to find that place you need to be walking north on Vene street, while scanning the walls to your left for a small gateway. If you reach the Kloostri Ait restaurant, then you need to turn around and try again.

Sõprus offers a repertoire that caters to the more tasteful movie-goer while not swinging too far into obscurity. For the Tallinn party crowd, the imposing Stalinist building is mainly famous for housing a nightclub, but the house was originally built as a cinema, complete with two auditoriums and a cafe. Definitely don't expect popcorn.
