Cool Kalamaja

Kalamaja is a beautiful district of Tallinn that takes its fl avor
from the fi rst Estonian Republic times. Here you'll fi nd
delightful old wooden houses, as well as unique industrial
lots. The area is home to the world class Estonian Maritime
Museum (the Seaplane Harbour), the photography center
Fotografi ska and the Energy Discovery Center.

The area is also bustling with a rich mixture of cafes, bars,
restaurants, bakeries and street food options. Here are a
few highlights of the area:

concert hall, theatre stage, several cafes, galleries, bars
