Alexander Nevsky Cathedral

Tallin has to be one of the most underrated old towns across Europe. At least, I had never really heard of how nice it was. We had a short stay in Tallin, only a couple of nights. We stayed at Kreutzwald Hotel in Tallinn, which was a nice enough hotel, just a few blocks from the old town. We bought the Lonely Planet guide to Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania and one of the best parts of the book was a recommendations for a walking tour through the old town of Tallinn. It really set the whole thing up perfectly.

One of the first few stops was the Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. It was a perfect walk up, through a park and we saw the onion domed cathedral just up the hill. The entire walk was ~3 hours and hit a bunch of great spots around the Tallinn old town. Highly recommended.
