I would have loved the lemont polenta cake, too!
That last shot of the street looks so good it feels fake, it looks like a Disney street, so pretty
What a cute little statue, will be sure to check it out when I'm back in Tallinn. 😊
There is also an older name for tallinn! It's Kolivan (Колывань)
Between 1309 and 1402, when it was part of the Land of the Knight of the German Order, it's Name was Reval.
Yes I knew that, but did you know that Rus' ought not to be confused with modern “Russia”, which derives its name from the Rus' but historically is a completely different state, which almost all its existence was at war with the Rus'. Just like the Holy Roman Empire was actually Germany, “Russia” is actually Muscovy, despite their best attempts to convince everybody otherwise. Its name “Russia" received only in the 18th century, when Peter I simply changed Muscovy’s name into the “All Russian Empire” (Russia originates from Rosia, name used by the Greek Orthodox Clergy in regards to Rus') Under the reign of Cathrine II Muscovites where even punished for continuing to identify as Muscovites, and were forced to call themselves Russian. Lands that Russia (Muscovy) claims were part of the original Rus', but actually weren't, are Novgorod, Suzdal, and Ryazan, since in historical texts of XI-XII centuries they are mentioned as separate entities from Rus'. They can be considered parts of extended Rus', although their culture was distinct from main Rus'. In 1493, Muscovite duke Ivan III appointed himself to be the Great Ruler of All Rus'. No other kings acknowledged that. From that point on Muscovy started to make false claims on Rus' ownership. “Russia” is an offshoot of Ukraine and not the other way round, despite what Soviet and Russian (Muscovite) historians have been trying to say for years. A Slavicised Finnic, then later, Mongolized offshoot. Kyiv was a developed cultured capital when Moscow was just another swamp village. Moreover, in the Italian sources of the 15th century it is likewise mentioned, that Russia is bordered by Poland to the west, Lithuania and Livonia to the north, and *Muscovy* to the east, further proving that Russia historically speaking, is an exonym of Ukraine, that was stolen by Muscovy. Germany used to call itself the Holy Roman Empire, that didn’t mean they became the Romans, and all of a sudden had a right to claim whole of Italy and its history, but yet, that’s exactly what Russia (Muscovy) did in regards to Rus'-Ukraine, which is a horrible injustice!
Muscovy = Russia
@@ProdbyVro Muscovy = modern “Russia” Muscovy ≠ Rus'(medieval Ukraine)
@@vredacted3125 sorry but there were no medieval ukraine. the history of ukraine started in 1917
@@ProdbyVro I mean, that term, sure possibly, but we can look at that areas history back to bronze age and beyond and we are talking about older names of places, that absolutely all have history since before the current name. We can still talk about the medieval state of Kievan Rus, the Crimean Khanate, Scythia and so on.
@@ProdbyVro haha, incorrect
Didn't know that ; visited Tallinn for the second time and each time I asked myself why this pretty statue of a deer was placed in the city itself 🦌💚 Now that I know to story, I regret not taking a picture of it ☹ Thank you so much for explaining, learned something today 🙏🏻 And also a good reason to come back to Tallinn again 😉 Ps for what reason they decided to give the city a new name : Tallinn (and has the name Tallinn a meaning also?) Thank you for your videos Polly, always enjoy them very much 🙏🏻
There's one theory, that, during medieval times the nobility lived on top of toompea hill, or uptown, and regular people on the lower land, or downtown. And uptown in Estonian is ülalinn, and downtown is all-linn. So, Tallinn is just a modification of all-linn, because most traders would not use the germanic Reval, but would say "ma lähen all-linna" or "I'm going downtown"
@@mjfan653 what's in a name 😉very interesting , thank you so much for sharing 🙏🏻 👍🏻
📍 Masters' Courtyard - Vene 6, Old Town 📍 Courtyard in the Roman-Catholic Cathedral of St Peter and St Paul - Vene 18, Old Town 📍 Šoti Park or Scotland Park - Uus 35, Old Town
visiting next week, I am soooo excited!
Off to Tallinn mid November, thank you your videos are great fun and informative. Will there be any Christmas decorations mid Nov?
Intriguing.... Šoti Park is hidden away near Oleviste kirik. I say that one of the three. Suur aitäh! Bookmarked.
Amazing video, but I would suggest adding address. It might be easier for tourist to plan their trip on map
Great suggestion Oleg. I've pinned the comment with the addresses.
I know I said it many times but I can’t wait to come back to tallin hopefully 2024🇺🇸
Definitely a place to check out, when in Tallinn. 🙂👍👍
I beg you please don’t open the burger after it’s put together. We all seen how it was put together no need to open it again.Great Channel btw! 👏🏼
Those Dumplings... ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
Rakas, ihana kanava, tilasin ja Tykkää hyvästä kanavastasi, ole hyvä ja tue minua, kiitos.
Awesome video! I'm in Tallinn right now and will use the video as a guide. Thank you and congratulations!
I would love to visit the Art Museums ...Tallinn is a hidden gem i really enjoy watching these videos
If i want to pay for the day ticket how can one pay on a bus?Can i buy contactless in the ticket machine?
You'll find more detailed information here: visittallinn.ee/eng/visitor/plan/transport/public-transport
Wow! Amazing job! Thanks a lot! I'm from Tallinn but I find your video super useful even for the locals! ❤️
Hi, I would like to know if I buy 5 day ticket on smartcard I can return it before leaving or I need to use it as much as possible or how does it work, when it's ticket and not money. Thanks for any reply
Day tickets cannot be returned. They are activated on your first trip and will be valid for the number of days you have purchased them for. visittallinn.ee/eng/visitor/plan/transport/public-transport
@@VisitTallinn no I meant smartcard If I can return it with it. :) not returning ticket :) but if they´ll accpet card back
@@malikovajana Yes, of course they will accept it back :)
@@VisitTallinn Thank you so much :) going soon <3
I am going to be there later this summer and I can't wait!
Oh that’s fantastic, my only tip- pack comfortable shoes 👟
On my next trip to Estonia, I will try to climb those stairs 😅
Not Cheburek, the correct name ıs Çi börek and it’s Turkish 🇹🇷 , it is filled with minced raw meat and spices. I was expecting to see some Estonian delicious before I visit to Tallinn.
Completely inaccurate. Its a dish from the crimean Tartars. After a quick google search it says the Anatolian turks got the dish during the crimean war.
I really enjoy your videos. Please, keep making more.
Thank you for your kind words, Dana. There are indeed more videos coming your way, stay tuned 👀
oh yes, I remember those steps! slippery! a lot of! better elevator like in Nigulist!
Just beautiful
I was in Tallinn in 1989 , I don’t remember this market , I knew a Mall there that sold all wonderful Soviet things … Where is the Antique store please ?
This is at the Balti Jaam Market, just outside of the Old Town. The whole second floor is dedicated to the antique and thrift stalls. If you are into antique stuff, it’s definitely worth to peek inside 😉
I have never been to Talinn but I plan to visit someday. It's fun to hear the name spoken in a plausibly American accent. The pastries look awesome. That Kimchi craziness looks awesome.
Yeah, the kimchi craziness finally reached our shores and we are so ready for it 😜
There should be a candle on the window. It is actually a safety measure against carbon dioxide. If light goes out, then should you :) .
Yum!! 😊
This brought back memories from 2018’s Europa Cantat when I visited Estonia. I hope to go back someday soon!!!
another museum to add: Tallinn Museum of Orders of Knighthood (a.k.a. Tallinna Rüütliordude Muuseum)
😍
Forget a gift shop (which I bet they have also), I wish every museum had a bar at the end of the tour!
Viru burger is the best
Can I buy a 5 day ticket with my bank card only?
You would need the green Ühiskaart to load day tickets on it: www.visittallinn.ee/eng/visitor/plan/transport/public-transport#where-to-buy-the-different-tickets With your bank card, you can purchase hourly tickets.
@@VisitTallinn Thanks a lot!
I WAS THERE AT BOTH OF THE EVENTS I SUNGA AND DANCED I LITTARLY SAW U
👌🤍💐Thank you so much
Are they Expensive for Restaurants and Shopping Are there Malls? Thank you 💐
Pohjala is pronounced"poi-yala" It's a very Estonian word! Took me a while to get it right myself
Love Tallinn, ( probably my favorite stop on our cruise), great food at the huge market ,and wonderful that you can walk to everything.
Great Job!!!!! So thorough!
Love this channel. Could you make a video of the best breakfast places in Tallinn?❤
uulits is the best burgers
The subtitles don't match the video:/ Edit: thanks for fixing!
On it. Will fix it shortly.
If visiting the Health museum, like 50m away across the street is Nature museum, also worth visiting. Im local, but some of these i have not yet seen😅 must go 😊
Thanks for this vid! excited to visit some of these cafes
Tänan suurepärase video eest ❤
