Descubre la rica historia, arte y tradiciones de Estonia
Estonia is the northernmost of the Baltic States, a nation that combines a charming medieval old town in its capital, Tallinn, with one of the most digitally advanced societies in the world. More than 50% of its territory is covered in forests, dotted with mystical swamps and bordered by a rugged coastline with more than 2,000 islands.
One of Estonia's most unique experiences is walking through its mystical swamps, especially at sunrise or sunset. National parks such as Lahemaa or Soomaa have wooden walkways that allow you to enter this otherworldly landscape, full of dark lakes, twisted pine trees and an eerie silence. For total immersion, you can try swamp snowshoeing.
The sauna is an essential part of Estonian culture. The most authentic experience is the smoke sauna ('suitsusaun'), a tradition from the World Heritage-listed Võromaa region. It is a ritual that lasts several hours, combining heat, the aroma of burnt wood, the use of birch branches ('viht') to stimulate the skin and, for the bravest, a final dip in a frozen lake.
A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Tallinn's Old Town is one of the best preserved in Europe. Climbing Toompea Hill for panoramic views, discovering hidden courtyards, admiring Town Hall Square and walking along its imposing walls is like stepping back in time to the time of the Hanseatic League.
Estonia offers several windows into its Soviet past. In Tallinn, the Viru hotel houses a KGB museum on its 23rd floor, from where the agency spied on guests. The former seafront Patarei Prison is a dark and powerful place. In the border town of Narva, Soviet architecture contrasts with an imposing fortress facing Russia.
To explore Estonia's largest islands, Saaremaa and Hiiumaa, is to discover a slower, more traditional pace of life. Here you can find windmills, historic lighthouses, thatched houses, the Kaali meteorite crater and the imposing Kuressaare episcopal castle.
Visiting the Tallinn Song Festival Auditorium ('Lauluväljak') is essential to understand the Estonian spirit. It was here that hundreds of thousands of people gathered to sing patriotic songs, in an act of peaceful resistance that was key to regaining independence from the Soviet Union.
