Tallinn, Estonia

Day 6 14/10
Tallinn


Woke up and found FR's and Diana's bed empty. It is only 8am. They went back to Helsinki so early!
Chu Fang and I continued our trip in Tallinn!!!
Our hostel in Tallinn. Very interesting hostel. It feels like a student hostel to me. In the evening, group of guys would be playing guitar. Everyone is so friendly. Especially Hans. Every morning he would say "Good morning Arisa" so nice...

The receptionist is even better! She allowed us to place our heavy bags in the hostel though we have checked out. and even invite us back to the hostel when we went to collect our bags. (:

The best hostel i ever been to. Though no breakfast provided.Niguliste Museum

Alexander Nevsky Orthodox Cathedral
Under the Russian influence.
What i can say is don't mess with this church.
haha... people who enter is really more of asking for blessing than tourist.

and the door is very very heavy.


Toompea tower
Able to spot me? haha..Chu Fang bought the local hat cum scarf

This the the underpass to Kumu museum. Even the underpass have many interesting art work.

Tallinn wanted to build a museum that have the nicest architect. Hence they held a competition. As expected, a finnish guy won.They provide the black board to allow visitors to show their creativity. I am too tired to draw.

This section is very noisy! All the art piece have a voice recording. making some weird speech..

This is one of my favourite


This section is very interesting!Shell became smell

Too hungry!!! Can't afford to go restaurant. So fast food is the best. Halloween special set. cheapest of all.

Walked thousand miles to the bus station to buy the tickets for our bus trip to Riga.

At the market near the bus station.The items is super cheap in Tallinn. 0.10€ for such a big cabbage! how i wish i can do my groceries here and carry it back to Lappeenranta.

The wind is so strong that i nearly got blown away! Luckily my heavy bag saved my life.
