Nice beach. Probably great during the summer. Tons of people wind surfing.

Cool beach to spend your summer holidays! It has a perfect infrastructure, nice sand, warm water. For us, it's the nicest beach in Europe.

Long straight beach with white sand. Easy on the feet. The water is shallow so very suitable for kids. Coffee shops and others along the shore. I traveled there in Autumn.

I love it 🇪🇪💙 so pure and crystal clear water, soft sand and large beach. There is also nice bar and very best big sweet drinks /smoothies and great music and children were dancing also friday night .

It's not quite summer, but -18°c in deep winter! There is a lot to see on Pärnu beach, the bay is frozen, people are walking and enjoying the sunset!

Long, clean beach. Was completely empty in September. The water is very shallow: after 20m, my ankle was not completely under water. Probably a good thing if you want a photo of you walking on the water.

Nice beach, the sand is clean. there are plenty of parking spots available around, There is also a restaurant along the beach, kids activities to play with, beach volleyball or soccer infrastructures are available.

Great place for all family members to be all day. Strongly recommend to book a tour and only for you and your family! After some time you will understand that you are not interested in making a few photos, because you listen only stories.

Most beautiful park I visited so far. Includes more than 200 types of roases, inumerous species of shrubs, trees and other plants, statues of greek gods and philosophers, drinkable water fountains, and great views! Expect to be there exploring for at least 3 hours to get to know the main spots, as it's a really big park. Definetly coming back there once I have another opportunity.

Well kept park with garden art and on lake activities. UNESCO world heritage site!

Great park. Get a map to make sure you see everything. Good for 4-6 hours especially if you rent boats or bring a picnic. The underground river boat ride was nice.

Historical Arboretum with more than 2000 local and exotic plants. Fair entrance fee (100 UAH for adults, so ca. 3€). Really worth to visit!

It is the best park I've ever been in Ukraine, amazing views, huge territory and interesting architecture) Definitely worth seeing, especially in autumn 😎

Very beautiful arboretum! The better time for visiting is early morning at 9.00 am when nobody there and enjoy the amazing nature and silence

A lot can be said about this place, but it is better to come and see everything yourself. It is difficult for me to imagine where else in the world there are so many historical buildings, caves, museums, icons in one territory. And indeed the place that is full of history. Just go to the free part, if you like it, you can come on Sunday and get into the "museum" part for free too.

Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, also known as the Kyiv Monastery of the Caves, is one of Ukraine's most revered religious and cultural landmarks. Perched on the picturesque hills overlooking the Dnipro River in the Pechersk district of Kyiv, this UNESCO World Heritage site is a stunning example of Eastern Orthodox monastic architecture and a place of profound spiritual significance. Founded in 1051 by St. Anthony of Kyiv, the Lavra began as a humble cave monastery and grew into a vast complex of churches, bell towers, and subterranean catacombs. The history of Kyiv Pechersk Lavra is deeply intertwined with the spread of Christianity in the region, serving as a spiritual center for Eastern Orthodoxy and a cradle of monasticism in Kievan Rus. Over the centuries, it has been a focal point of religious life, attracting pilgrims from across the Orthodox world. The architectural beauty of Kyiv Pechersk Lavra is breathtaking. The complex is dominated by the Great Lavra Belltower, which soars to a height of 96.5 meters, making it one of the tallest bell towers in the world. The golden domes of the Dormition Cathedral, which was rebuilt after being destroyed during World War II, gleam in the sunlight, creating a striking contrast against the blue skies of Kyiv. The interior of the churches is adorned with exquisite frescoes, mosaics, and icons, reflecting the rich artistic tradition of the Orthodox Church. Beneath the Lavra's surface lies a network of catacombs, where the mummified remains of saints, monks, and notable figures from Ukrainian history are interred. These underground passages are a place of pilgrimage, with visitors coming to venerate the relics and experience the serene, otherworldly atmosphere of the caves. Culturally, Kyiv Pechersk Lavra is a symbol of Ukraine's religious heritage and national identity. It has played a crucial role in the preservation and dissemination of Orthodox Christian traditions, theological scholarship, and religious art. The Lavra continues to be an active monastery, home to a community of monks who maintain the centuries-old spiritual practices that have been passed down through generations. In addition to its religious significance, Kyiv Pechersk Lavra is a cultural treasure, hosting museums that display priceless artifacts, manuscripts, and religious objects. The site is not only a place of worship but also a center of learning, art, and history, embodying the spiritual and cultural legacy of Ukraine.

This is an amazing site to discover in Kyiv. Visit the church, see the mirror egg outside. The outstanding architecture. You need to visit this as travellers. It's a must and less than $5 to visit. On my visit there was some coffee machine outside, was very tasteful.

I visited just before the start of war, so my review is based on my experience at that time. A beautiful and historic monument in Kyiv. Arguably the centre of the Slavic Orthodox religion. I wish to visit again when things are back to normal.

Beautiful place!!! Lots to see so make sure you have plenty of time. The bell tower is a little bit of a workout but completely worth it. The architecture, artwork, grounds and history is quite amazing.

It’s not really “free” to enter but 100 UAH to pay. But of course it’s worth paying the amount as you’ll get to see amazing monastery with so many beautiful ornaments around. Do not miss the viewpoint as you’ll be able to see nice view under the river and to the war museum down south.

Amazingly beautiful. Worth visiting when in Kyiv and if you have a good day to dedicate. Not only the church but Monastery is full of beautiful holy places and micro environments, quite relaxing for visitors.

The Main Street in Kyiv, many events and shows going on there. It’s very nice to go and back and get some food or coffee over there.

Such a cute ,lovely place, I love it. Lots of cafes ,restaurants, beautiful architecture

It’s the main street in kyiv, you can find a lot of bars, cafes, restaurants from different cultures, and also it’s the first destination for the tourists that’s a lot of languages here

Good place to visit

Lively and busy artery of the city for shopping, food, coffee

Kherschatyk Street ; main busy street In Kyiv Ukraine ; I like it special the small kiosk where you can have waffles and hot red tea special in bight cold

The street is very busy and very beautiful. Always tons of people walking around.

The Cathedral of St. Sophia in Kyiv, also known as Sophia of Kyiv, is a masterpiece of Byzantine architecture and a symbol of Ukrainian history and culture. Built between 1017 and 1037 during the reign of Grand Prince Yaroslav the Wise, it served as the spiritual and political center of the medieval Kyivan Rus' empire. The cathedral's stunning interior is adorned with intricate mosaics and frescoes, showcasing the artistic achievements of the period and attracting visitors from around the world to marvel at its beauty and significance.

Orthodox cathedral from 11st with golden dome and bell tower separated from the church. Metropolit's residence and the museum are part of the cathedral complex. Cathedral is inscribed on the World Heritage List along with the Kyiv Cave Monastery complex. Place to visit while in the city.

I travel a lot so I've seen many beautiful cathedrals. But still St. Sofia impressed me to the bottom of my heart. Amazing antient place with gorgeous wall-paintings.

Tramendous historical place to visit, built in the 11th century. Several buildings with excibitions and fresco on the religious topics. I would advise to explore it with the guided tour and buy souvenirs. As I was born in this city, I have visited it many times. Attached are 2 old historical photos that I liked and my photos :)

UNESCO world heritage. Enterance fee is 125 UAH per person. If you want to climb to the bell tower that’s extra of 60 AUH. Beautiful church and the surrounding

Beautiful historical church and a UNESCO heritage site. Also make sure to climb up the bell tower for amazing views of the St Sophia as well as the square below and the St Michael monastery at a distance.

What an historic and sacred place... one of the greatest historical monuments in the word .. the inside of the church is restored and protected as hundreds if years ago .. also the remains of tomb of the king and all other things and the bell and museum and bread factory and all are very interesting

I love these paved/cobbled walkways in Kyiv, which has various hills. So reminiscent of other cities in Central Europe. This one reminded me of Prague! 🇺🇦 🇨🇿

Something of a old city and tourist area, very nice area

Very nice hill to walk up or down. Very nice walk and at the top there are many nice restaurants and things to see. Great area for some exercise.

Nice atmosphere and artists alley, good place to have a walk and enjoy atmosphere of old Kyiv

very elegant charming resedential area with colorful houses.

Historical street with old, renovated houses, shops, restaurants and cafes

This is one of the fairy places in Kyiv. There are so many stories, legends, and just unbelievable stories. You can still cath the spirit of art freedom and fall in some adventurous here. Just find the right people or good guide to visit this place if you're first time in Kyiv.

It’s worth visiting but once, they also offer nice parties for kids during the summer with lots of open air activities such as foam parties and holi, however, it’s much better to purchase tickets online at least a few days prior to the event to save on the entrance fee on the day of festivities . They have a playground for kids and a nice collection of retro cars. The bistro on summer weekends and during any celebrations is just a nightmare!!! You have to wait in line for at least 30 minutes and the food is rather average, however the prices are rather low

Green complex, with historical and local filling of the traditions of the building. everything is clean and cute. the complex is not large, some part is closed to ordinary visitors. there is a place for horses. Here are held many interesting events and the whole Minsk gathers.

There are some old cars and you get tiny cheeses for tasting. All that for 23 rub. It totally doesn’t worth this much money.

I had really enjoyed my day over there, it is a nice place where you can clearly find out how past life of Belarusians was and buy the traditional products , handcrafted things , seeing old cars and the technique of making vodka in addition to the kind mentors like Lira .

I suggest you to take an excursion there, so you’ll have lots of fun with tastings of local products and drinks. Area is nice, but I was disappointed that everything was in Russian. Even the guides don’t do the tours in Belarusian. That’s sad. And the shield at the entrance wasn’t in a native language.

Pleasant place to spend few hours in. Not so crowded, not so big, this museum is an ideal place for trip with children.

Historical nice place with wide variety of traditional handicraft of Belarus and also you can meet hospitable Belarusians in their ancient attires :) <3

Very nice and beautiful place, recommend to visit to everyone who visits Minsk.

I would said nothing about place where is the library located . Because there is metro station just few hundred metres out. I wouldn't said nothing about how massive is the building . Because it's really big but looking nice ... Good luck !!

Amazing visit to a cheap price. Great view of the city on a sunny Minsk day is incredible. Highly recommend

An icon of the city of Minsk! A must for all tourists, go to the 23 floor for the view.

Famous and biggest library in Bilarussia. We visit it today 28th/08/2019 very nice place.

Very good

The observation deck entrance is at the back side of the building. Paid some fee, climbed the lift. The deck is overlooking the city of Minsk. Very beautiful view from here. There's a cafe and rooms for art exhibition. At night, we waited to see the light spectacle. Beautiful illumination. It's worth the wait.

Very moving monument, the monument is to those fallen as a result of Afghanistan war. Meaningful and touching design , creates emotional and deeply moving experience..

Nice, calm and scenic place to visit while at Minsk. Made in the memory of Balarusian men who fought during USSR campaign in Afghanistan

It really is a beautiful place

A heartbreaking memorial site for the soldiers who died in the war in Afghanistan.

Nice monument with a little bridge to access. Peaceful.

It's a small island and only takes few minutes to walk around it.

Very moving monument - quite intense to visit as then one can almost feel the emotions that the statues of widows, mothers, sisters and daughters transmit. Very important to remember that not all is glory in the death of a soldier - and to remember all he left behind.

Very impressive memorial. Definitely worth the visit

This place should be visited by everyone who wants to get in touch with the history of this country

Extremely moving memorial to a horrible chapter in history.

An unusual place. It is difficult to describe the atmosphere and all the feelings when you are among these monuments of human cruelty. A special sensation is causing by the bells ringing for the deads. At the same time there is some kind of harmony here. This place is definitely worth a visit. The entrance is free.

The first thing you need to do is go to the museum (kind of unnoticeable on the far left of the parking lot) and buy a $2 book that gives the history and significance of all of the memorials (book is in English and Russian). There is a museum that shows photos of past memorials and photos of construction of present ones. It also has stories and photos of survivors from Khatyn and other villages--only in Russian though. The whole complex is very harrowing, but so worthwhile. Very well done in typical Soviet style (concrete).

If you visit Minsk, you should also visit this Memorial.

This is a must witness during a trip in Belarus. It describe the insanity of war, the bells reminds about the tragedy as happened here.

St. Anne’s Church is truly beautiful and charming. The traditional old architecture is breathtaking, with its rich history reflected in every detail. Inside, the wonderful woodworking on the furniture adds warmth and authenticity to the atmosphere, making it a peaceful and inspiring place to visit. A must-see for anyone who appreciates historic architecture and craftsmanship.

St Anne’s Church is the most beautiful and famous structure in Vilnius. It was constructed during 1495-1500 at Vilnius old town. The intricate design of the church makes it an outstanding piece of architecture. The exterior of the church has remained almost unchanged, though the interior has been repaired many times. The interiors of the church feature unique paintings and decorative wood carvings that are truly beautiful. Enjoyed visiting the church very much.

Today is Easter and we went into the Church of St. Anne. According to legend, Napoleon would like to place it on the palm of his hand and transfer it to Paris. But the church in the style of "Flamboyant Gothic" still decorates our city. This small and very beautiful church is often open on church holidays. And whenever we go in, we see a haze. Maybe because of this smoke, it has a light, airy atmosphere.

One of the most breathtaking sights in Vilna. Definitely in the top 5 most beautiful churches I've ever seen. A must to visit if you're in town.

One of the most impressive churches I’ve seen from an architectural point of view. Truly magnificent both outside and inside. Take a moment to admire it from the park on the other side of the street before entering through the main gate into the main church. A must see in Vilnius.

One of the most beautiful and epic churches I've been. Interestingly enough it has a carving of the Godess Ishtar. Which is a pagan symbol.

This Late Gothic Church uses 33 profiles of bricks in the faccade. The History does not say it but I wonder if 33 profiles are used to represent that Christ was 33 when he was crucified. Napolen destroyed the church in battles of 1812 and was rebuilt in 19th century with a belfry of NeoGoghic style. The Soviets used it as storage and offices. Even do, the interior was revitalized in late 1990s by the monks, and the chapel is in Benedictine monk honor. We spent over an hour exploring, including a secret room with frescos and wood works under reconstruction. Take photos of the frescos that were painted over by the Soviets as the trues colors come out on photos.

Free to walk up to and around the grounds for a fantastic view but you have to pay for the tower. Be careful of the stones going up to the castle or you can take the funicular for 3EUR return. Would highly recommend to visit for the beautiful scenes!

Did a walk up because the funicular was closed on a sunday. It's not too bad. Saw little children hopping up and many old couples doing it too. Beautiful views. Totally worth the climb.

Gediminas Tower offers one of the best panoramic views of Vilnius. The climb up the hill is short but rewarding, and the tower’s small museum gives a clear overview of Lithuania’s medieval history. The restored structure is simple yet symbolic, standing proudly above the city. It can get windy and crowded, but the scenery makes it absolutely worth the visit.

Visiting Gediminas Hill was a memorable experience, worth every step. The view from the top is breathtaking, and the tower itself is a reminder of Vilnius’ roots and legends. Helpful tips for tourists: • 🚶‍♂️ The funicular is currently out of service, so you have to climb on foot. The path is steep – wear comfortable shoes. • ⏰ Best time to go is before sunset, when the city is painted in warm colors. • 🎟️ Inside the tower, there’s a museum about the history of Vilnius castles. • 👨‍👩‍👧 The climb may be challenging for kids, but the experience is rewarding. • 📸 Don’t forget your camera – the panoramic views are among the best in Vilnius.

Visited on our day trip to Vilnius. There was no funicular working on the day which was limiting for some visiting. The path up is part cobble (very uneven) and wooden stairs so while the renovation is ongoing if you have mobility issues it may not be for you(September25). Good Views of the city. €8 to enter. We did not go in. The whole site is limited due to restoration work but still worth the climb

Gediminas Castle is a great place to visit in Vilnius. It’s on a hill, and from the top, you get an amazing view of the whole city, especially at sunset. You can walk up or take the funicular if you don’t want to climb. The tower has a small museum inside where you can learn a bit about Lithuania’s history. It’s not very big. The best part is definitely the view, it’s perfect for photos and just relaxing for a while. If you’re in Vilnius, this is one of the top spots to see!

Nice place to have a great view of the Vilnius city. Visitors have to climb up couple of minutes to go top of it. Tickets are necessary if you would like to top if the castle otherwise you can still enjoy beautiful views from nearby of the tower.

From my personal interest, this is one of the most fascinating museums I've ever visited. A building which was both a "home" for the Gestapo and the KGB, it is now a museum which tells the story of the people of Lithuania during decades of occupation, repression and death. The most eerie parts are the corridors of the prison cells and the execution chamber. I truly recommend this museum for anyone visiting Vilnius

Everyone who goes to Vilnius should go to this museum... as a reminder of the suffering of the Lithuanian people in their struggle for independence and freedom. Be prepared though... it is very sad and some of the information was shocking. But it's a must do if you're visiting Vilnius.

This place is practically living history. I assume some of the people who worked here are still living. It's a pretty sinister place. People can really think of ways to make the lives of others miserable if they don't conform to their rules. It makes me think that humanity should be doomed. All of the material is presented in Lithuanian and English.

A sobering account of Soviet oppression at a telling moment in modern times. This museum is a converted former KGB prison, with detailed explanation of the horrors of incarceration and what it feels like to be culturally and politically suppressed by an aggressive hostile country. It recounts the resistance efforts of ordinary Lithuanians in the face of insurmountable odds, and reveals their heroism even in the bleakest of times.

Somber and very sobering. A must see and visit place to understand the Baltic States' history and current situation. Very detailed history of the KGB and the oppression of the Lithuanian people. It's a listed building and kept as much as it was when Vilnius returned to an independent state. Incredible lower level prison cells and interrogation rooms of political prisoners. There is an execution room but we could only last 30 seconds in there as it was to upsetting. We were the only ones there. Afterwards we went to see the names carved in the stone bricks at the front of the building. Emotional and enlightening visit.

Former KGB prison. To day a museum with a very complete documentation and very visible exhibition of the horrible and terrifying history of Latvia before- , during and after the war. Breathtaking and goothbumps for me and I thinka lot of visitors.

Best and the most substantial museum that I've ever been to. Totally worth the (cheap) price. You can learn a lot about Lithuanian 20th century history.

Visiting Trakai Island Castle was like stepping into a living piece of Lithuanian history. The moment you cross the wooden bridge over Lake Galvė, the red-brick towers appear in full majesty — calm, proud, and full of stories. Inside, each hall has its own character: the Grand Duke’s chamber feels royal and atmospheric, the armory impresses with real swords and armor, and the exhibition about Vytautas the Great brings the medieval world to life. I loved how well-preserved everything is — you can almost imagine knights, musicians, and nobles walking through these halls centuries ago. Helpful Tips for Visitors: Arrive early, especially on weekends — it gets crowded quickly. Book tickets online in advance to skip the queue. Take a guided tour or audio guide — it adds so much depth to the visit. Bring cash for local shops or snacks — not all vendors accept cards. Don’t miss the inner courtyard and lake views — perfect for photos. Families with kids should visit the dungeon and towers — they’re always a hit! After the castle, try the legendary kibinai at “Senoji Kibininė” nearby — the perfect finish to your day. Trakai Castle isn’t just a tourist attraction — it’s a real time machine that lets you feel the spirit of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. A must-see for anyone who loves history, architecture, or simply beautiful places that make you pause and breathe in the past.

Stunning castle in one of the most beautiful settings in the world. We were lucky with the weather as it had been raining all day the previous day. The restauration of the castle is amazing and still ongoing. Certain areas were closed because of that and because we visited out of season. But still lots to see with a huge number of period artefacts. Gives you an idea of how important trade was. Tranquil setting with nice walks in the area. Not many visitors but I can imagine it gets very busy in Summer. Good restaurants around on the lake side leading to the castle. It's a good walk from the station, about 3km, but beautiful along the lakes. The whole experience was magnificent and the on site toilets were immaculate. Access for wheelchair users a bit tricky and you need to be fairly sure footed due to the old cobbled roads and paths. But what a place. Return rail ticket from Vilnius was about €6.

A very cool medieval castle and a museum! Despite some rain and October gloomy weather, we had a great time exploring the castle. The grey skies gave the whole location a nice vibe, and the forest and lake surrounding the castle looked stunning.

Had an lovely experience visiting Trakai. Nestled in nature, the entire environment is incredibly calming and beautiful. The colorful houses and the vibrant surroundings make it a truly picturesque destination. The peaceful ambiance, especially with water all around, adds to the tranquility. And of course, if you visit, you absolutely must try the kibinai, a delicious local treat that adds an authentic touch. Absolutely worth the trip!

I visited Trakai Castle in October, and it was absolutely stunning. The autumn colors made the entire island look like something out of a fairy tale — golden leaves reflecting on the calm lake, with the red brick walls of the castle standing proudly in the middle. The weather was cool but pleasant, perfect for exploring without crowds. The walk across the wooden bridge to the castle is beautiful and gives you plenty of photo opportunities. Inside, the museum is well-organized, with interesting exhibits about Lithuanian history, the Grand Dukes, and medieval life. There’s also a sense of calm and history that you can really feel as you wander through the courtyards and towers. Even though some areas felt a bit touristy (like the souvenir stalls near the entrance), it didn’t take away from the experience. I’d recommend stopping at one of the nearby cafés to try kibinai, the local pastry — warm and delicious on a chilly autumn day. Overall: A must-visit if you’re in Lithuania. Trakai Castle in autumn is simply magical — peaceful, picturesque, and full of history.

We visited a beautiful, photogenic castle situated on an island surrounded by water. During our visit, a portion of the castle was closed for renovation, which unfortunately affected the quality of our photographs. The interior of the castle is rich in history, and the local guide was very knowledgeable in sharing its stories.

The Trakai Island Castle (Trakų salos pilis) is a stunning medieval fortress set on an island in Lake Galvė, Lithuania. Reached by wooden bridges, it feels like stepping into a fairytale. The red-brick towers, calm waters, and scenic surroundings make it one of the country’s most photogenic spots. The museum inside is informative, and boat views are magical at sunset. A must-visit day trip from Vilnius for history and nature lovers alike.

We visited this place on 26th January, on the last Sunday of the month so we did not pay the entrance ticket. The area is very big and they also turn on the lights of attractions when the sun sets. You can easily spend the entire day here. My suggestion is to come here when winter ends since all the houses were closed and there were no animals. Also, there was only one cafe open, Arbatine. We had a very nice day in the nature, and we will surely come back on summer, when the place can offer the most. PS: The right address is L. Lekavičiaus gatvė 2 Rumšiškės and not 2 J. Aisčio gatvė, where there is only the administration office.

A great place to visit! Very well organized, with a large area perfect for walking – you can easily spend the whole day here. In the town section some points are open where you can buy things, so it’s good to bring some cash. There’s a post office, a craftsman demonstrating traditional work, a restaurant (cards accepted), and a shop with local products like honey. Highly recommended!

What a wonderful place! Don’t think of it as a museum, but as a beautiful, enormous, gorgeous natural park. It’s wonderful! So much nature, it’s breathtaking. It was free today (Sunday) and we only payed 2 euros for parking (license plate scanning). There are toilets at the entrance. The souvenir shop was closed as it was Sunday, I suppose, and I couldn’t see anywhere to eat, so maybe bring some snacks and water. You can also get to the observation tower. We wished we had more time here, you can spend hours exploring and enjoying nature!

We visit d after the close for the season day, so were not able to enter any of the houses. Still beautiful walk, and we spent almost 2 hours just walking around and enjoying beautiful landscape.

During dar season there are beutiful light instalations. This year it was called "Užburtasis slėnis". Really beautifull atmosphere

We are here last day of our Lietuva trip. This was our best place to visit. Forgot Trakai go here price is the same you see more! You can spend whole day here. Walking see and RELAX. Every house is polished with fine garden. You can rest and get a cafe too. We start at 14 and leave at 19 and see less than half. I suggest get a picnic set and go there from morning.

This is super interesting to check out. Bring a lot of time and pick a dry day. There is a lot of walking required for this, but it is worth it. There are buildings from all over Lithuania, most of them can be walked though fully equipped with furniture and all in very good shape. I liked the town center the most, there were some things to do. The viewing tower might need an update some time soon.

Kaunas Town Hall is a must-visit if you’re exploring Lithuania’s second-largest city! Known as the “White Swan” for its elegant architecture, this historic building sits in the heart of Kaunas Old Town. It has served many purposes over the centuries—city hall, prison, and even a wedding venue! Today, it houses the Kaunas City Museum, where you can learn about the city’s rich history. Take a stroll around the charming square, grab a coffee at a nearby café, and soak in the atmosphere of this beautiful and lively spot!

Close on Monday and overseeing a torn-up square (large renovation works ongoing August 2025). Not worth the effort

Most visited places in Kaunas , old town bars , cafes and restaurants, you can also find here museums art shops and other interesting sites

The Kaunas Town Hall is a beautiful and impressive building – a real highlight in the heart of the Old Town. The architecture is elegant, and the surrounding square is full of charm and history. It’s a great spot for photos and a nice place to sit and take in the atmosphere. Unfortunately, during our visit, the building was under renovation, so we couldn’t fully enjoy or explore it. It’s understandable that maintenance is necessary, but it was a bit disappointing not to see it in its full glory. Still, it’s a lovely landmark and definitely worth stopping by if you’re in Kaunas – hopefully next time without scaffolding!

10 euros, theres an app and i just cant make it work, not a whole lot, you can climb up the tower and take picture through windows ... Ac was nice.

I didn't visit the museum, but the town hall itself is a very beautiful building. The centerpiece of Kaunas Old Town

A 16th century Town hall situated on a nice square, surrounded by historic buildings. Really nice, if just to stroll around and look at the buildings and the people passing by.

Kaunas Castle is a wonderful place for a walk. In the evening it’s beautifully lit, which makes the atmosphere really charming. The whole area felt very safe, and I also noticed there are surveillance cameras nearby, which adds to the feeling of security. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Kaunas!

A historic castle very nicely preserved, clean and surrounded by green areas and walking trails around it. Minutes away from the old town of Kaunas. Worth visiting!

Kaunas Castle is a beautiful and historic spot right in the heart of the city. The red-brick fortress looks amazing, and the museum inside gives a nice glimpse into Kaunas’ past. The area around it is great for a walk, with lovely river views and a calm atmosphere. Staff are friendly, and there are often cool events or festivals happening nearby. Definitely worth a visit!

A very nice castle, but quite small once you get inside and with status you need to be careful as they are quite steep and you will need to wait for people or to go upstairs or downstairs as you can do both at the same time as it’s quite narrow. Worth a visit tho. The prices for tickets is ok too £4 for adult, but for students, kids, retired and disabled people gets it’s cheaper or does not pay at all which is nice.

Nice little exposition,well restored old castle,loved the dungeon prison part,great view from top level of the tower.Small but interesting museum,stairs at the tower are steep and narrow but there is another wider exilt on level two.Would recommend to spend couple hours exploring castle and surrounding old wall grounds.

Nice park to walk around. You can walk up to have a view. Castle itself has few remains, so not that much to visit. Has a museum indoor in the tower (paid entrance)

Nice castle immersed in a well tended park. We were there on Monday hence the castle was closed therefore we could only admire the outside of it

An interesting and peculiar place where it seems that there is nothing, but there is a lot there. We also left our crosses there among the others as a memory. A popular place and the crowd kept coming, but it didn't interfere at all. In the souvenir shop, we were served by a lovely and nice young woman. It was an exciting and memorable visit.

The hill of crosses is a hill covered with over 250,000 crosses of every shape, size, and constitution. Today our group of 10 explored the collection of wood, metal, fabric and more crosses, rosaries and religious symbols. Several people brought more crosses, some purchased from the gift store near the information center, again in metal, wood and in various sizes. Several large crosses still stand but a few have fallen due to exposture to the elements. Crosses, rosaries, and special intention prayers from all over the world unite. Everyone seems to agree that house once stood here and was burnt by the Russians in 17th century. People began putting crosses here in mid 19th century either to praise God or to honor those killed in mid century uprisings against Tsarist Russia. In. 1961, Russians burned wood crosses and melted down metal ones. But the Hill of Crosses survives today with people bringing more crosses for praise, petition, remembrance. Some crosses bear words asking for world peace This is a peaceful, powerful stop for people of all faiths or with no Faith. The walk through the crosses can be steep and muddy and the view can be appreciated from any vantage point. At the parking entrance, a 5 minute walk, a open air gift shop offers amber jewelry, all types of small crosses, postcards and magnets. A smaller indoor gift store offers a selection of amber and jade items. The restroom costs Euro 1.

Such a unique pilgrimage spot. Visited as part of a guided tour. Incredible to see the amount of crosses everywhere, from the more modest crafted with two sticks, to the most elegantly sculpted.

The folk legend is that the hill started because of a man with sick daughter, had a vision of Christ asking him to place a cross at this place. His daughter got better and word got around and people started putting crosses at the same place. After WW2, USSR was controlling the country and didn't allow religious beliefs. Didn't help that the crosses were placed for people who were killed in the uprising against USSR. The place was destroyed a few times but the resilience of Lithuanians continued to put back the crosses. This place became a pilgrimage in accordance to St James after Pope John Paul II visited the place. Watch the pics for his quote about Hill of crosses.

It may not be the most convenient option if you are traveling alone due to its distance, but it proved to be a pleasant stop on my journey to Riga. The area is quite breezy. There are a few souvenir shops located near the parking area, and a paid toilet is available at the information center, where card payments are accepted.

A very religious and unique place. Soviet communist hordes bulldozed it in the 1970s, but crosses kept coming back. Quite an experience .. 🤔 We were taken there by a very friendly taxi driver from Siauliai train station.

The Hill of Crosses in Lithuania is an excellent and deeply moving place, visited by countless people with faith and devotion. The sight of thousands of crosses creates a powerful spiritual atmosphere. It would be wonderful to see more services and facilities develop in the area to support visitors and enhance the overall experience.

Perhaps the jewel of Latvia. The palace is in really good condition, thanks to everyone's hard work. The gardens are certainly kept in immaculate condition. Most of the rooms are open to visitors, including the bedrooms and bathrooms of the Duke and Duchess — definitely worth a visit. It's usually not very crowded on weekdays. You can use an audio guide.

Beautiful, rich collection, friendly staff, almost no tourists in November yet highly operational. Interesting to see powder rooms and toilet closets. Impressive collection of “ household” peaces. Wonderful cafe switch beautiful service. Food served in aristocratic dish-ware. The clock outside is restarted with beautiful music playing at each hour with the sound stretching through whole yard yard. Very happy with our visit.

The Baltic Versailles! Amidst the vast fields and meadows of Zemgale (Semgallen) stands the most beautiful baroque palace in the Baltic States: the Rundāles Pils (Rundāle Palace). The palace was commissioned by Ernst Johann Biron, the lover of Tsarina Anna Ivanova who bestowed him the Duchy of Courland and Semigallia. The famous Italian architect Bartolomeo Rastrelli designed and built a palace inspired by Versailles. Since the Duke was exiled to Siberia by his political enemies in 1740, the construction of the palace took place in two phases. During the first phase (1736-40) the palace itself was built, and during the second phase (1765-68) the furnishing of 138 rooms and halls was completed. During the Latvian War of Independence in 1919, the palace was badly damaged. In 1933, the palace was restored/rebuilt when a school was established. After the Rundāle Palace Museum was founded in 1972, a thorough and long-term restoration was immediately started, which was only completed in 2015. Thanks to this restoration, the palace once again radiates its 18th century grandeur, which visitors can admire in 40 rooms and halls. In addition to the magnificent interior, the French gardens are certainly worth a visit. So all in all, Rundāle Palace is a destination that should not be missed on your itinerary!

Amazing place! Worth the drive from Riga. We enjoyed it very much! Unfortunately rainy weather stopped us from going to their beautiful gardens. A lot of visitors even on weekday.

Really glad we decided to drive and visit Rundāle Palace. If you had a car - don't skip this easy day trip from Riga. The gardens are beautiful - and it's aways interesting to see intricate buildings preserved. Impressive! We spent about 2.5 hours here in total. We visited on a Wednesday and bought tickets when we got there.

The Rundale Palace in Latvia was built in the 18th century. Though originally built as a palace it was used for various purposes including a school. In 1972 the palace and the surrounding gardens was established as a museum. It has 40 rooms exhibiting furniture, decorative pieces, paintings including painted ceilings. Very impressive from outside and inside, one of the most well preserved palaces in the world. The French garden adds to the charm of the palace. Ticket can be purchased together for the palace and the garden. We visited it on a "Tour and Transfer" from Riga To Vilnius. Highly recommend it.

The Palace of amazing beauty 🤩🥰 with a large French park nearby. The beginning of the palace dates back to the 16th century, although Rundale Manor is mentioned from the 15th century. To walk the main paths in the garden, inside the palace - will be about 6.2 km, and if you explore all the passages of the garden it will be more of km. 🙃 and you should dedicate at least 3.5 hours (you can run around faster, but it is better to walk slower 🙃). The price for an adult to visit all the places is 23 €, but you can also visit the garden and palace for 17 €, but then you will not enter one of the palace "wing" with another exposition. If you have already arrived at the place and have an opportunity - it is definitely worth visiting all possible places.

Marvelous medieval castle. Kind small, but walking inside would be up to aprox 2 km. if try to visit all corners 🤣 They give candle lantern for some authentic feeling while walking through dark places inside, and that's super nice. There is a narrow staircase and with some other narrow aisles, so need to be careful. In one of the tower shows some video about the history of this castle - it is quite short but interesting. Maybe in the summer whey could work a little longer, not till 18 h. The price for adults - 10€. You can pay by cash or card. Worth to visit. Also, don't forget to visit also castle park.

A very interesting medieval castle, it takes easily few hours to explore all the corners and towers because it is so captivating! The show in the west tower about the history was done so well, and the lantern with a real candle contributed a lot to the atmosphere, it was nice to have no electric lights. I recommend this amazing time trip.

Wow, this is really awesome place to visit! it remains the medieval castle in Latvia. You can learn how the castle was built and invaded by foreign countries from the historical museum too. For the castle and its two tower tour, they offer you a medieval lamp to stroke around even in deep dark area(believe me there are certain area really black out and cold). We were kind of worried about a very short candle can last for the enough time we'd visit to the two towers and the jail at the very bottom, but it turned out to be ok. Worth of visit!! - note for those who would not understand Latvia language, there are some sheets of papers for the guidance but we took some photoshots as there were far too many things to feel and learn from the castle. Very beautiful place! We used CATA bus from Riga, it took us about 1hr and 50min and 5.32Eur one way. It was very convenient to use bussystem reservation system even for foreigner(s).

Rugged and intimidating! Cēsis Castle may be "only" a ruin, but it still exudes an intimidating robustness. Schloß Wenden, the original German name of Cēsis Castle, is one of the most iconic and best preserved castles in Latvia. In the autumn of 1206, during the Baltic Crusade, the Wends converted to Christianity and became allies of the crusaders. In 1208, the Livonian Brothers of the Sword moved in with the Wends in their hillfort and fortified it with a stone defensive wall, and although the fortress is described as "the smallest in Livonia", it withstood repeated attacks by the Estonians and Russians. In 123 or 1214, the Brothers of the Sword built a new stone castle next to the hillfort. In 1237, Cēsis Castle passed into the hands of the Livonian Order, a branch of the Teutonic Order, and became the seat of the Master of the Order. Extensive reconstructions and extensions followed, making Cēsis Castle one of the largest and mightiest castles of the Teutonic Order. With the dissolution of the semi-autonomous Livonian Order in 1561 and subsequent sieges, the castle's decline began. The siege of 1577 by Ivan IV the Terrible became famous for the mass suicide of the castle's 300 defenders. After the castle came under direct control of the King of Sweden in 1681, his soldiers wreaked havoc in the castle. It seemed as if they were plundering rather than defending it. In the first years of the Great Northern War the Russian troops demolisd Cēsis Castle further. In the centuries that followed, nature had free rein to bury the castle in its own rubble. In 1760s the former gatehouse was rebuilt as a manor house, the so-called New Castle. In the 1830s the castle park was laid out at the foot of the ruins, and the first safety repair works were carried out. With the reconstruction of the roof of the West Tower the first serious restoration works began in 1903. Major conservation works were undertaken starting from 1930s when Cēsis Castle became popular as a tourist attraction. Today the castle remains a popular and educational destination, which is definitely worth a visit!

The most interesting castle in the Gaujas natural park. Partially reconstructed castle based on the original layout, it host an interesting museum about Livonian and more recent history. Cool the ascension to the main tower wit the aid of a candle lamp !

Beautiful! We loved walking around the area with our dogs! Coming from the United States I don’t think they realize how cool it was to be here!

I was startled when someone greeted me and offered a lantern before entering the castle. Inside was terribly dark, and the spiral staircase was the worst. Well, I experienced how people in the medieval life without electricity. But overall, this castle was amazing. In one underground, there was a visualisation of people who were thrown into the underground prison telling their story. In other rooms, you can discover the audio storytelling of how people 400 years ago lived inside that castle before, and in the end, they abandoned it.

A truly peaceful and picturesque place. The castle itself is modest, but the surrounding gardens are stunning — beautifully designed with thoughtful planting and a perfect harmony of colors and textures. Walking here feels like stepping into a living painting, a real moment of serenity. Huge compliments to whoever created and maintains this landscape!

We visited in November. Turaida castle is really worth visiting. When you arrive to a parking lot, there are plenty of spots to park. You can pay for it in the museum which is like a minute away and you don't have to go back to put it in your car, just take it with yourself, it costs 2€. The ticket for the castle was just 6€ which is honestly not much, we saw many castles in different countries which where not that worth as this one and were more expensive. Except of the castle you can visit many other places and building here, like the church, the souvenir shop or the jewelry shop which offers plenty of beautiful hand made jewelries. Turaida castle itself is right now in reconstruction but was really beautiful. You can go inside every door which you can find, meaning that you can see plenty of expositions with stuff found during excavations, see some photographies, old armors, go up in the tower to see the whole castle and it's surroundings. The whole place is quite wast so you can spend there hours walking around, enjoying the atmosphere.

Beautiful castle with stunning views from the tower. Plenty areas to explore, many old building with a person in each building to explain more details, great information too. There are parks and pathways to explore. Easy access to toilets. And we were luck as there was live music concert on the stage next to castle.

Our group of 11 travelers from 5 countries journeyed to the castle complex Today. The guided tour from the entrance through the church as the guide told the story of Rosa de Turaida fave full delta to the castle. The small museum shows the reconstruction of the castle that allows visitors to climb 139 steps to the top for a va race point of the complex and the greenery

One of the most beautiful castle in Europe. If you want to see nice castle with beautiful park, i recommended Turaida. Look at my photos of environs. Very nice :)

Nice castle to visit plenty of info and amazing view. The exhibition carries on in all the other buildings around the park (church, little houses…) - make sure to save enough time to visit the whole park and all these different exhibitions, it’s a lot to take in but it’s worth it.

In case you're planning to visit Turaidas Castle for the first time DO NOT follow your google maps. Instead take the parking spot on the 'mountain' (if you're driving a car) and cross the street to get tickets in the Museum entrance. You can pay by parking at the Museum register (same place where you can get tickets). Also the cost for tickets change twice a year — once in Autumn and once in a Spring.

If you like great food at a reasonable price, the central market is waiting for you. SO MUCH FOOD! Everything was fresh and was as alluring to the nose as it was to the palate. So much variety, you will hardly know where to start. It's even fun if you're not hungry... just walk around and take it all in. Definitely recommend!

The best open market I’ve ever visited. Traditional meeting the modern in a wonderful mix. Vegetables, fruits, nuts fish, poultry, beef, clothes and lot of other things. I will be back.

I visited Riga Central Market, and it was such a vibrant experience. The market is huge and full of life you can find just about everything here, from fresh flowers and local foods to meats, cheeses, spices, and handmade goods. It’s a great place to discover authentic Latvian flavors and everyday life. The market is set inside historic old Zeppelin hangars, which gives it a unique and impressive atmosphere. Each pavilion specializes in different products, making it easy to explore and sample a wide variety of items. I especially enjoyed seeing the fresh produce stands and traditional Latvian treats. It’s not just a place to shop—it’s also a cultural experience, perfect for walking around, tasting, and soaking in the local vibe. Prices are fair, and you’ll find both locals and tourists enjoying the market. If you’re visiting Riga, this is definitely a must-see. 📍 Location: Nēģu iela 7, Riga, Latvia

Nice and quick lunch spot in the gastronomy market they have different restaurants where you can have local food and buy local cheeses and souvenirs. A nice quick stop in the city. Haven’t take any picture of the dumplings but they were very good.

Great place to sample the local food. There are plenty of fruit and veg stalls, flower stalls and clothing stalls as well as a food market inside. They sell all the traditional dishes for extremely reasonable prices so a great way to eat like the locals. It’s a vibrant, buzzing area that’s definitely worth a visit.

Really big market with so much variety. There are different halls dedicated to different types of goods (the meat hall, the fish hall, etc). There's a hall that has eateries, and there are other retain shops throughout. Outside there are fresh fruits and vegetables as well as flowers. Definitely a must visit location for anyone visiting Riga.

A very unique market where each of the four large hangars offers something different, with wonderful caviar, meat, and fish products for sale, and outside, a marketplace and florists. I really liked it.

Beautiful church right in the heart of Riga’s Old Town. St. Peter’s Church is an impressively restored building, with restoration work still ongoing. A highlight is the elevator ride up the tower – the elevator may feel a little shaky, but it takes you safely to the top. From there you get a fantastic view over Riga and the Old Town. Definitely a worthwhile stop on a city walk.

Really beautiful church, well worth stopping by even if not religious. The building is stunning & the architecture is immense. You can pay extra to go up in the tower, which is an incredible experience. You get panoramic views of the whole city, including the river. It's a bit scary at first as the lift opens directly out onto the tower, but definitely power through!

St. Peter’s Church in Tallinn is one of those places where history, architecture, and atmosphere all come together beautifully ⛪✨. The church itself has a calm, almost timeless feel to it—like it’s been quietly watching the city change for centuries. The high ceilings and intricate details make you feel both small and amazed, the kind of place where you whisper automatically even if no one tells you to. What I loved most was how it blends solemnity with charm. It’s not just about bricks and stained glass; it’s about stories, traditions, and that sense of being part of something much larger than yourself. And of course, like every good historic church in Europe, it also gives you that gentle reminder that your photography skills will never do it justice. 📸😂 Whether you’re into history, architecture, or just need a quiet escape from the bustle of Tallinn, St. Peter’s Church is worth stepping inside. It’s a place that makes you pause, reflect, and maybe even wish your own ceiling at home was a little more “cathedral-like.”

St. Peter’s Church in the heart of Riga’s Old Town offers an unforgettable experience, the soaring 13th-century tower provides panoramic views over the red-rooftops, the Daugava River and the modern city skyline. Inside, the blend of Gothic and Baroque architecture is impressive, and the history that echoes in the walls makes it more than just a photo-stop. A must-see when in Riga.

An absolute must-visit in Riga! ⛪✨ The towering architecture of St. Peter’s Church is breathtaking up close — truly one of the city’s most iconic landmarks. The interiors are peaceful and filled with history, and for a small fee you can take the elevator up to the observation deck 🌆⬆️ which surprised me with stunning panoramic views of the whole city — rooftops, river, bridges, everything! 😍 The atmosphere around the church is vibrant, full of cafés and street life, making it the perfect stop during a walk through Old Town 🚶‍♂️💛. Definitely worth the visit if you want to experience Riga from its most beautiful angle! 📸✨

9EUR to visit the church and do up to the tower via 3 flights of stairs and an elevator. As soon as you step out of the elevator you are on the viewing platform which can be very windy but views are beautiful especially with nice weather. Church itself is nice and peaceful.

St. Peter’s Church is one of Riga’s must-see landmarks, especially because of its stunning viewing tower. After taking the lift up, you’re rewarded with a panoramic view over the entire city.

Plac Ratuszowy, also known as Town Hall Square, is a historic cobbled market square in Riga, Latvia, dating back to the 13th century. Although it was destroyed during World War II, the square has been meticulously reconstructed, showcasing beautiful Hanseatic architecture and monuments.  The square is home to notable landmarks such as the House of the Blackheads, a stunning building that dates back to the 14th century, and the Museum of the Occupation of Latvia, which offers insights into Latvia’s 20th-century history under Soviet and Nazi occupations.

The heart of Riga and a must-see stop. Home of the amazing House of the Black Heads and also outdoor cafes to enjoy the view and people watching. Seek out a small sculpture that commemorates the world's first decorated Christmas tree in 1510. Men from the House of the Black Heads decorated one with roses, danced around it, then set it on fire!

Just great we really loved Rigas and would have to be the cleanest city we have visited. Just wandering around the old town and parks is really worth the journey there and don't forget the market it was fantastic.

Parking in the center costs 5€ per hour, the next hour costs 8€. Throughout the city, 1 hour of parking is 1€. The food is delicious, prices are like in most European cities ( pasta 10,90€, Hamburger 12€). We are lunching on the main square. Big city, beautiful and interesting.

So many beautiful buildings around to see! Lovely Church! Love to walk around and explore! Such a beautiful city!

Nice place for a photo opportunity, house of the black heads is a one of the iconic architecture in Riga

Beautiful square with nice dutch renaissance style buildings.

Nice beach. Probably great during the summer. Tons of people wind surfing.

Cool beach to spend your summer holidays! It has a perfect infrastructure, nice sand, warm water. For us, it's the nicest beach in Europe.

Long straight beach with white sand. Easy on the feet. The water is shallow so very suitable for kids. Coffee shops and others along the shore. I traveled there in Autumn.

I love it 🇪🇪💙 so pure and crystal clear water, soft sand and large beach. There is also nice bar and very best big sweet drinks /smoothies and great music and children were dancing also friday night .

It's not quite summer, but -18°c in deep winter! There is a lot to see on Pärnu beach, the bay is frozen, people are walking and enjoying the sunset!

Long, clean beach. Was completely empty in September. The water is very shallow: after 20m, my ankle was not completely under water. Probably a good thing if you want a photo of you walking on the water.

Nice beach, the sand is clean. there are plenty of parking spots available around, There is also a restaurant along the beach, kids activities to play with, beach volleyball or soccer infrastructures are available.

The Tallinn town hall is your typical museum setup. Info about the old town since the 1300s. Not much to say about that. The tower was pretty cool though. Got to go up to the bell and see the city from there. Not sure if the €20 was worth it.

A top stop! Lovely preserved old building with cool stuff and good descriptions in English. Plenty to see, it’s not just a reading experience. The floor just under the roof is super cool. If you’re up to it, climb the tower for a unique view. Note the climb is very steep, can be very crowded and may have a long.

Most people only talk about the Tallinn Town Hall for its beautiful building, but there is so much more to it. Can you imagine that it has a museum inside? I didn’t know until I went there. I like the museum because it talks about a special street, the “Pikk Street”, in Danish this would translate to “dick street”. Good thing Estonia isn’t Danish anymore. But funnily enough this reminded me of all the Dicks Streets back in Luxembourg. A strangely comforting thought. There are many places to sit down in the museum, which is a criteria I always use to rate the visitability of a museum. Especially because I have a friend who loves to sit down. The more my friends can sit, the happier I am. We also found out about the Estonian fascination with weather vanes. They’re not just regular weather vanes, they are enormous. You can really not miss them on top of churches or in this case inside the museum. Now coming back to the start, people may admire the view of the building but from the museum you have a beautiful view onto the city. It really is a must visit.

This old town feels like stepping straight into a fairy tale – except instead of a dragon, you’re most likely to bump into a tourist wielding a selfie stick. Narrow cobblestone streets twist between colorful medieval buildings, and no matter which way you go, the town hall finds a way to peek at you from somewhere – like it’s playing hide and seek, and always winning. The atmosphere takes care of itself. While you're sipping coffee or nibbling on a local pastry, a horse-drawn cart might gently roll by, and someone in medieval costume could pop around the corner. For the tourists? For fun? Or maybe just a lost time traveler. Who’s to say. Town hall itself is a Gothic masterpiece from the 14th century, and it still holds court with pride. If Tallinn does one thing exceptionally well, it's blending history with charm. And if you find yourself taking photos of the same tower from every imaginable angle… trust me, you’re not alone. This place does that to people.

Tallinn Town Hall has its own museum inside dedicated to both the building’s past and the city’s. It was interesting to learn that there were writings about the Town Hall from 1200s. Entrance fee is 20 euros but free if you have a Tallinn city card.

Tallinn Town Hall is a stunning landmark that perfectly captures the spirit of the Old Town. The Gothic architecture, intricate details, and panoramic views from the tower make it well worth a visit. Inside, the exhibits give a fascinating glimpse into Tallinn’s rich history and civic life. Whether you’re exploring the square below or climbing to the top for amazing city views, the Town Hall is a must-see stop for anyone visiting Tallinn!

It takes about an hour to look round the town hall. The tapestries and carvings are nice, I was lucky in that one of the employees who works in the museum was happy to answer questions about the exhibts. The attic has lots of information boards explaining how the town hall was restored. The cellar contains an older version of the weather vane 'Old Thomas' but there is no explanation as to who he was. Would not recommend to a family with children.

If you like the views, this is the place where you should go to in Tallinn. There are multiple platforms where you can see something form the city, and a lot of shaded places if you want to chill somewhere under the trees.

The Toompea hill and Castle are located near the famous Alexander Nevsky Cathedral and it’s also 10 minutes walking distance from the Old town main square. We didn’t visit the building inside, and we saw there were English tours that you could book, but we won’t had enough time and we decided to walk around and check the beautiful views that this place has from Tallinn old town city and we think it’s a nice place to explore a little more if you have more time. Eli: 5 / Serge: 5 Recommended: Yes, the area has a beautiful view even if you don’t visit the places inside. Tips: - Comfortable shoes are recommended, since the pavement of the Old Town streets, in general, are made with paving stones.

A small park in the city center.

Hill area with a castle which is now the parliament building

It is small hillock 10 minutes walking from Old town. Has estonian patliament and Alexander Church here. The viewpiints of old city are must go on this hillock.roads are made of paving stones and can be difficult if you have a baby and stroller. Whole hillock can be explored on foot.

Nice area to walk with cobblestones.

Certainly worth to visit, must see. The place, the view and surroundings are charmful

This is a fantastic museum, I only really wanted to go for the sake of going inside submarine. However, it turned out to be so much fun. It's very interactive, lots of exhibits for you to play around with. You can go in a flight simulator, drive toy boats, climb netting from a ship mast & much more. Out the back, there's also boats you can see/go on with your ticket. Be careful trying to climb inside the submarine though, it's not an easy feat 😂. This museum is included in the Tallin card which I highly recommend you buy.

Simply put one of the best museums I’ve been to. It’s like no expense was spared when building this place. They have a beautiful building which houses a huge submarine that you can fully explore. They have lots of interactive exhibits including a flight and boating simulators. And outside there were at least four boats or small ships you could go on. I would highly recommend vista if museum if in Tallinn.

Wonderful naval museum! They have an original mine laying submarine from the 1930s as the centerpiece; also a very interesting section about the Estonian Navy; plus the remains of an medieval boat; plus a large section about sea mines; plus so much more. And they have lots and lots of activities for kids, like two bi-plane simulators, some boat simulations, a harborbwhere you can steer your own ship .., it is just a marvellous place if you are interested in maritime things. And there also is a very nice café on a terrace overlooking the museum. A clear highlight of any visit to Tallinn! There is ample parking space around the museum, but you have to pay with the Snabb-App, since the parking is managed by this company. And beware - they are diligently checking, if you have paid ...

Superb museum. This is how items should be displayed in a 21st century museum. Fantastic lighting, interactive displays and interesting artifacts. No dusty cabinets here. Highly recommended and don't forget to go outside and go on the boats as well, they are included in the entrance fee but this wasn't made clear when we arrived 😁

As a Londoner, I'm spoilt by having some of the biggest and best museums in the world. So, it's a compliment to this one when I say it's very good - thoughtful design and consideration for users, balancing the needs of kids and adults. The Estonian airforce and navy have always been small, so the breadth and depth is limited, but what there is, is well stated. However, I was perplexed that no date was given for their star archaeological exhibit (the skeleton of the wooden boat). Well worth 1-2 hours, especially as the surrounding area has great food and other interest.

Lennusadam is one of the most impressive museums I’ve ever visited 🚢✨. Housed in a stunning seaplane hangar, it combines history, technology, and hands-on fun in the best way. Walking through a real submarine, seeing historic ships up close, and exploring interactive exhibits makes it an experience for all ages. The building itself is breathtaking, and the harbor views outside are just as beautiful. A perfect mix of learning and adventure—this isn’t just a museum, it’s a full journey into Estonia’s maritime past.

Great mix of maritime vessels to see here, including the main attraction submarine which you can board. Some interactive displays/games too. Videos on the history of the site and building. We spent around 2 hours here but didn’t read every exhibit.
