Winter Tallinn, Estonia looks exactly like the perfect setting from a historical film. Cobbled streets blanketed with snow, medieval ramparts, and in the middle of it all, Town Hall Square with its giant Christmas tree. The city proudly claims to have hosted Europe’s first public Christmas tree<\/strong>, which according to local tradition stood here as early as 1441 (though in nearby Riga they’ll tell you something different). Whatever the truth, once you find yourself at the markets filled with the scent of cinnamon and roasted potatoes, you’ll easily believe this medieval legend. \u263a\ufe0f<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although December days in the north are quite short and the sun dips below the horizon early in the afternoon, you’ll be rewarded with an endless golden hour<\/strong>. Soft light washes over the ancient merchant houses and creates an incredibly photogenic atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The advent village here also won a prestigious poll a few years ago for the best Christmas market in Europe<\/strong>. Tallinn still rightfully boasts this title today, having managed to preserve an incredibly magical atmosphere without endless crowds. Let’s look at tips for what to see and taste in Tallinn during advent, so you can enjoy the Baltic winter to the fullest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
