Tallinn's Medieval Days kicked off on Thursday with an opening ceremony at Town Hall Square featuring a dizzying performance by Estonian slackliner Tauri Vahesaar.
Sunday, May 15 marks Tallinn Day, the 21st time the annual event has been celebrated, with activities, including an Estonian-language dictation test, starting as early as Friday, Tallinn City Government says.
An impeccably preserved medieval capital, unspoilt wildernesses, cutting-edge galleries and a thriving sauna culture make the Baltic nation an alluring European escape.
