Tallinn, Estonia surprised us. With it's incredibly well preserved old town, towering monuments and kind people, we left Estonia with no doubt in our mind that we'll be back again.

I wasn't surprised at all that you were so fascinated in Tallinn :) I found information about those monk statues. They are quite new, set up in 2015 after an idea contest. They are waiting monk Ambrosius, praying monk Bartholomeus and watching monk Claudius. They are based on old legends that they're sometimes appearing as ghosts in that place and nearby.

@WyattandReyka 6 месяцев назад

Super interesting! Gotcha so they’re very recent, all considering. Pretty random hahaha. But gotta love random art! 🤗 Have you been to Tallinn? 🤔🥰

..... all right, things you should do while in Estonia: Around Tallinn: 1) Visit Estonian Open Air Museum in Rocca al Mare district 2) Pirita to go up the Tallinn TV Tower and while there check out the Sailing venue from the 1980 Olympics 3) Laulupidu / Tallinn Song Festival grounds and shell.... Estonia sang their way to freedom from Soviet occupation 4) Kadriorg Park 5) Warm up at Kehrwieder Saiakang Chocolaterie right on Old Town Hall Square for warm drinks and delicious baked treats 6) Oleviste kirik / St. Olaf's Church climb the tower to the base of the copper roof. This building was the tallest building in the entire world for a period of time after it was built!

@kennethainetdin3401 5 месяцев назад

So you forgot the Danes. Denmark even gave the name to the city Tallinn. Linn means town, and Taani are the danes. Danish town, Taani linn and shortened Tallinn. The upper part of Tallinn (Toompea) is where the danes lived, the ruling class.

@WyattandReyka 5 месяцев назад

Thank you! Totally forgot about them. But that’s fascinating that the city was named in danish. Where are you from?? 🤔🤗

@smit5590 6 месяцев назад

I'm surprised you're knowing some phrases in Estonian. It's a very hard language to learn, especially for English speakers. This is because, Estonian is part of the Uralic language along with Hungarian and Finnish.

@WyattandReyka 6 месяцев назад

For sure very hard! We like to learn at least “thank you” and “hello” in most countries we visit as the locals always love it. 🥰 also it’s really fun hahaha

Estonians absolutely hate that Russian church as it was built as a symbol of Russian imperialism. Many of us still wish it demolished. Same with the Russian matryoshka dolls - they are NOT part of the Estonian culture. I think you guys did much injustice to Estonia in this video. The monks were installed in 2015 and there isn't really any story behind them, they are just sculptures.

@WyattandReyka 5 месяцев назад

Daw man that’s unfortunately you think that. Generally, the more you travel the more you see old monuments from previous rulers. We of course are not celebrating oppressive times but just highlighting the history of a country as well as some beautiful landmarks people can expect to see when they visit. We also believe that by publishing this video more folks will come to Estonia and realize how amazing of a country it is. But alas. The effect of one’s work in the world is often out of their hands. We just do the best we can. Your critique is noted. 👍 Cheers, thanks for watching, and have an excellent day ❤️

@xwiirastusx 5 месяцев назад

While I do agree with you in principle, I think you are being a little unjust here - they merely showed the Nevsky Cathedral and Russian dolls in passing, without swooning over them like some Western travel vloggers do.

Tere from the Estonian diaspora in America. My grandmother always told me the flag colors represented sky, black rich earth for farming, and the snow or rough-sea for the white stripe dependent on the day. Kinda like early naturalist movement shown in national iconography. "You can't be a happy Estonian unless you cannot see your neighbor's house," = solitude with nature and land is considered important. Maybe that's why I'm a farmer on a 12 acre mountaintop and away from people, but back to flags... the stripey blue/white flag next to the national flag in nearly every picture is the CITY's flag, and thereby worth a shoutout as you trip through European cities: they're not just pretty colors for no reason. Glad no Russians or Swedes raped, murdered, and placed you in forced labor gulags during your trip :)

Hello! Thanks for all the info and perspective on Estonia 🤗. And yes. We are glad too 😳
