  • Make sure to visit the little shop of Helina Tilk at 5, Lühike Jalg. Here you can find the original handpainted plates, cups, textiles (and other things) designed by this artist. Basically there are two types of motives, very cute and homey animals and impressions of medieval Tallinn. Everything is high quality and very affordable, and it is a nice change from the tourist shops that all look the same.

  • Name of Shop: Apollo Raamatumaja

    Looking for some press and/or books (or for the "Tallinn in your pocket" guide)? This place is easily found, right at the city gates. There's also a caf? upstairs, for warming up or just to sit and read.

    Also open on Sundays (until 4 p.m.)

    To your left (if you are standing in front of the shop) you can also find a shop selling second hand books. You'll have to go through a beauty shop and up the stairs to get to it.

     Really like the winter photos and great nightlife and restaurant tips - added much to a guide for my nephew's trip. Will return again. Ciao, Carol
