Narva Travel Guide: 53 reviews and 142 photos

The city of Narva is located in North-eastern (Ida-Virumaa) Estonia, sadly famous, next to other things, for its unemployment, drugs addicted persons and high level of AIDS.

But if you have never seen the unique view of two ancient frontier fortresses facing each other across a river, you should come to Narva to see the Hermann Castle on the Estonian side, and the Ivangorod Castle over on the Russian side.
If you have never before seen Swedish medieval fortifications, in Narva you will find those, which previously enclosed the town, making it one of the most powerful fortresses in Europe.
