Tallinn, the city of my past ...
I want to share with you a piece of his childhood and violent youth. I grew up in Tallinn and the city was left to me all the more romantic than Venice and Florence, the "revolutionary" Berlin and Maastricht, it warms my heart and soul better than any Miami and Alicante.
Tallinn, as you know, is the capital of the Republic of Estonia. The first mention of "Kolyvan populated area" refers to the 12-th century. For centuries, changed the town's name and authority (ie, citizenship). There were German order bearers, and the Danes, Swedes, and the Russian crown. All these changes have left imprints of their hands in the "body" of the city, some touch was like a kiss, and something like a punch. The greatest flowering of Tallinn experienced in the 15-16 centuries, at the time of his stay in the Hanseatic League. At the same time, and they formed the main "features" of the city, such as the fortress wall (almost completely preserved). Due to the almost perfect preservation of the "old center" Tallinn since 1997, the year is one of the few cities included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
It will be 30 photos.
I did not even apologize for the presence of the logo of another site, and being digibetom, do not keep it for a great sin, given that the author of photos by 95% is my brother. But this is not the topic of otnostitsja.

№10. 15a And this, in fact, Ekaterinsky Palace (the back side). Ploschadochka groomed since to go out the window of the Presidential Palace, which is located slightly to the right and the shot missed.
№11. Even during the Middle Ages, the city is divided into two parts: Toompea-to-Nizhgorod nobility and for merchants, artisans and salaried workers. Here you Vyshgorod. In the foreground, Toompea Castle, the seat of the Estonian government. The flag on the tower Long Herman (during the Inquisition former prison) is the principal symbol of Estonian statehood.

№13. This is now. Alexander Nevsky. Bring political bitterness. When Estonia declared its disconnecting from the Soviet Union, we natskadry seriously discussed the issue of demolition of the Cathedral: where is this sort to 50 meters from the holy of holies (parliament and the flag) was a symbol of "occupant" religious-Orthodox Church !!! But it has resolved (it was a lot of gossip and speculation about the why and how, but we are not talking about that ...) ...

Tallinn №16.No I not only love surprises. On the contrary, it is not for the novelty, but for a kind of a centuries-old mossy. Here, the expression "You can not enter twice into the same river" is somewhat vague. Building on this picture does not particularly noteworthy (especially for Petrograd, just strangled a similar architecture). And for me, it remains a lot of libraries have been held in these walls. And I'm not ashamed to tell you that initially it was really just a place of knowledge, but then it was just a launching pad into neighboring the most fashionable bar)))
№17. One of the symbols of medieval history is the Pirita Convent, or rather what was left of it. Building thereof started in the early 15th century, and it was destroyed in the second half of the 16th (according to legend, Russian prince of the great love).

St. Nicholas is still remarkable for its unprecedented "good luck" (or a skills-ovskih Soviet bombers): when the bombing of the city during World War II were destroyed before the foundation of the house up to 20 (!!!) meters from the church.
№22. It is the oldest signboard, on many sources, pharmacies across Europe (see no. Gray house on the background). It is leaving itself some time after de-Sovietization.
