Maarjamäe Palace Tallinn
Great playground for children
Inna from Tallinn
Yes, you heard it right – there’s an amazing playground inside the Estonian History Museum!
The museum area actually includes three different museums, all connected by a park where kids can play for hours. And here’s the best part: if you’re not visiting the museums themselves, you can still enjoy the outdoor playground and territory for free.
But I often come here with my kids to the museum itself, because inside there is a special playroom – and for that you’ll need a ticket. It’s usually very quiet, especially on weekdays, and for children it feels like paradise: a slide from the second floor, a little playhouse, and so much space to explore. Even my one-year-old loves this place!
A perfect mix of history, culture, and play.
…and at the end, you can also stop by the museum café for a snack or a cup of coffee — but more on that in a separate post.

Hell Hunt
Probably the best pub in town
"Hell Hunt" is my go-to option when I just can't come up with any ideas of where to go for a drink or food in Tallinn. A chaotic, cheerful pub/restaurant.

Boheem Kohvik
Nice place for dinner
"Boheem Kohvik" is one of my favorite spots in Tallinn for lunch. This nice and quiet restaurant makes, in my opinion, the best Caesar's salad in the city.
