Tallinn

Little known gems are often the most precious and alluring. Estonia's ancient seacoast capital is just that kind of a jewel. Tallinn, which at one time and another fell under Danish, German, Swedish or Czarist Russian rule, has retained more relics of the past and in a more complete state than most other cities in Europe. The old city's inclusion on UNESCO's World Heritage List was a dramatic acknowledgment of that.
