In 4K City Walks: Tallinn Estonia's Medieval Old Town - Virtual Walk Walking Treadmill Video you will walk through the amazingly preserved Medieval heart of Tallinn Estonia. Amazingly preserved streets and alleyways wander in a senseless morass of a labyrinth but that just make it more enjoyable. The old city walls still surround most of the old town. 40 ft high, they tower above you as you walk. The area bleeds history. From the market square and town hall to the Kiek in de Kok museum and the various cathedrals, including the onion domed Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, the city welcomes you with its enchanting embrace. How's that for poetry. I walked in the morning on this one and I had to try twice since I accidentally lost the footage from the first try. I also used my Sony with a wide angle lens to capture the tall buildings in the narrow streets. I hope you enjoy this walk. Tallinn, Estonia is a great city with lots to offer. This video is one of five that will be released over the next few weeks.
Thanks.

From Wikipedia:
Tallinn is the capital, primate and the most populous city of Estonia. Located in the northern part of the country, on the shore of the Gulf of Finland of the Baltic Sea, it has a population of 434,562. Administratively a part of Harju maakond (county), Tallinn is a major financial, industrial, cultural, educational and research centre of Estonia. Tallinn is located 80 kilometres (50 mi) south of Helsinki, Finland, 320 kilometres (200 mi) west of Saint Petersburg, Russia, and 380 kilometres (240 mi) east of Stockholm, Sweden. It has close historical ties with these three cities. From the 13th century until the first half of the 20th century Tallinn was known in most of the world by its historical German name Reval.
Tallinn, first mentioned in 1219, received city rights in 1248, but the earliest human settlements date back 5,000 years. The first recorded claim over the land was laid by Denmark in 1219, after a successful raid of Lyndanisse led by king Valdemar II, followed by a period of alternating Scandinavian and Teutonic rulers. Due to its strategic location, the city became a major trade hub, especially from the 14th to the 16th century, when it grew in importance as part of the Hanseatic League. Tallinn's Old Town is one of the best preserved medieval cities in Europe and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Tallinn has the highest number of startups per person among European countries and is a birthplace of many international high technology companies, including Skype and Transferwise. The city is to house the headquarters of the European Union's IT agency. Providing to the global cybersecurity it is the home to the NATO Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence. Tallinn is ranked as a global city and has been listed among the top ten digital cities in the world. The city was a European Capital of Culture for 2011, along with Turku in Finland.

The Baltics are fantastic during summer. What a nice relaxing walk, very different from the winter snowstorm I encountered when I was there. So much sunlight 😎Thanks for posting!

I'm sure it's MUCH different in Winter but I'd love to see it then. Thanks for the comment - Henry

awesome video. I went here in 2010 during a cruise that went from Copenhagen to St. Petersburg. I had no prior knowledge about the country but this city was absolutely beautiful and the people were really nice.

[@CityWalks]

We took that cruise, well a similar one from Helsinky directly to St. Petersburg. Amazing city. I did three walks there. Thanks for the comment. Love hearing personal stories about these places. -Henry

A truly beautiful global city, steeped in history (thanks Wiki) and with the best swept streets ever. Top of the favs list of your vids so far.

Thanks so much. It really is a beautiful area. When the cruise ships come in, it does take on a bit of a theme park atmosphere but in the mornings and evenings it's wonderful. -Henry

[@xwiirastusx]

The sculptural weathervane Old Thomas, depicting a 16th century soldier is the symbol of Tallinn's freedom of any royal or empirial power to exercise its authority and trade as it sees fit.

[@CityWalks]

[@360Tour]

This video made me like your channel even more. I just could not stop watching it all the way to the end! Even though I'm originally from Eastern Europe, I loved seeing that architecture, and though I haven't been back to Europe in years, while watching your video I felt like being there in person. Thanks for sharing your walk!

[@CityWalks]

High praise. Thanks so much. -Henry

[@eksiarvamus]

Estonia is not Eastern Europe, nor is that architecture in the video Eastern European.

[@StockholmWalks]

Lovely, calm morning walk, smooth as coffee! Great to see a bit of Tallin! I’ve never been, but it appears to have some similar features to Helsinki and Stockholm, but clearly a unique soul.

[@CityWalks]

Stockholm Walks similar in some ways yes but smaller in scale. Outside of the old town it is very modern and bustling. Thanks for watching and the comment. -Henry

[@busanwalkingaddition4848]

If I have a bench, I want to read a book. The streets are beautiful.

This is just wonderful. I loved visiting Tallinn and all your videos of the place are so good - this one of the OldTown is the one I like best. You really are a World traveller from Portsoy in Scotland to Tallinn. Again thanks.

Graham Knight thanks so much. It was a great summer. Filming in Colorado at the moment and those videos should be out in the next few weeks. Thanks so much for commenting and watching the bids. Glad you enjoyed them. - Henry

[@patrickbarnes2617]

Wow. I love how this place looks. Great camera work btw. Its like you take a camera with you on your walks rather than going for a walk just to make a video. i love that you video before the crowds show up, because there is less to detract from the scenary. Keep up the good work!

At 55:56 you turned to right instead of turning to left. If you had turned to left there, you had seen the third viewing platform of the upper town with the most beautiful view over the lower town and sea.

helo henry. i am here now: )

[@CityWalks]

Very cool. Have a great time. -Henry

[@JT-it9vb]

Nice job. You must do these video walks very early in the morning, while the streets are almost empty of people. That allows the architecture and parkland to hold center stage with no distractions. Being a misanthrope, I'm delighted by the very low population density in this walking video. Nothing quite "uglifies" a beautiful setting, urban or natural, like a milling herd of gross-looking human beings.

[@CityWalks]

Religion Major thanks. This wasn’t too early but definitely before the cruise ships arrive. I like having these places to myself as well. Thanks. -Henry

[@StargateMax]

11:28 not really "based on" Finnish, but both languages come from the same "tree". I don't see Russian influence other than some half twisted slang words due to the soviet occupation from ~1940 to 1991. Any German influence mostly comes from earlier occupations by the Germans. Now there's even English influence, especially among the millennials and younger. They think they're so cool that way...

[@CityWalks]

Nice clarification. Thanks. -H

[@Diego_SanCA]

What are the people?

[@CityWalks]

Still on the cruise ships. -H

[@Diego_SanCA]

@@CityWalks Isn't there a population there without the tourist?

[@CityWalks]

@@Diego_SanCA A few but most people live outside the old town area. Just outside the walls, it's a vibrant, modern, beautiful city. I've done a few other walks there. -H

[@raziel3541]

Where is the people?

It's pretty strange how this old town area is only busy when the cruise ships come in. -H

[@Kaisersozze]

For a European city seems like there's very few people around.

[@CityWalks]

Yes, it's strange. The old town usually has crowds only when the cruise ships come in but the rest of the city is buzzing all the time. -H

[@takumi_forever7072]

Absolutely DISGUSTING AS HELL.. OF A PLACE.. WELL FIRST OFF any historical place or any place that has this giant 10th century or 13th century looking premises and cobble stones carved roads gives me HIGH HIGH anxiety anyway!!!. Hence-- (europe) atleast the 99%of it. Moreover these place is Dark as hell! The country is clean with nearly no crime rate bcuz there's barely any people!?and the ones are there! they would likely to stay "without blood on the hands".However if one commit's acrime,no one literally no one would be able to identify a leash of the crime! Bcuz it is easy to commit a crime there.(no-comment). Very very very few amount of wide open places and literally zERO GREEN ENVIRONMENT!!/SCENARIO... ANS THESE ARE JUST SOME QUICK PONT'S ... THEREARE ENDLESS POINTS REGARDING WHY NO ONE SHOULD EVER COMES HERE..!?!? ONE PLUS POINT-- IT IS LITERALLY OUT OF DANGER AND VERY CLEAN! . . Seriously!!! Some people even like this kind of architecture!! How?!?!? 😰...

[@eksiarvamus]

What happened to you?

[@CityWalks]

Yeah, second that!

[@CityWalks]

Wow, I can’t see how you came to these conclusions. Estonia has many natural areas as does Tallinn itself. I love the architecture and didn’t think it was dark at all. While the old town isn’t my favorite part of the city, it is absolutely beautiful. We experience no crime in our time there other than a potential pick pocket. I would highly recommend the city has a place to travel to. I hope you feel better.
