Estonian National Museum
Among other exotic places ESTONIA ranked 16th on the New York Times annual New Year travel recommendation list – 52 Places To Go In 2018 – under the headline “Marking a big birthday with a creative new national spirit”.
Estonia is celebrating the 100th anniversary of its founding in 2018 with a cultural rebirth. The centerpiece is the newly opened Estonian National Museum, a stunning, 1,160-foot-long glass structure set on a Soviet-era airbase runway in the city of Tartu. In the capital, Tallinn, creativity is also flourishing in the independent design shops in Telliskivi Creative City, a renovated 19th-century railway factory complex, and restaurants like Leib and Noa, where young chefs are experimenting with fresh takes on traditional Estonian cuisine and brewers are cultivating an exciting craft beer scene.
