The Queen of the Baltic Sea! I think this title is perfect for such a beautiful city. I've been there twice now and I love it. I like the proximity to the sea and the woods, the tranquillity even if it's a metropolis, and the many cultural, sportive and artistic activites that's going on.
- Pros:Big city but still very quiet
- Cons:I heard it's really cold in winter
- In a nutshell:Pefect setting in the most beautiful nature
