Helsinki and Tallinn: Baltic Sisters

The fascinating capitals of Finland and Estonia offer a chance to sample each country s history, art, and distinct love of life.

Then it s just a twohour boat ride to Tallinn with its medieval charms and newfound prosperity celebrating its freedom and thriving in its postUSSR renaissance. 2010 Rick Steves Europe
