Tallinn is the capital and most populous city of Estonia.

Tallinn is the main financial, industrial, and cultural centre of Estonia.

Tallinn is located 187 km (116 miles) northwest of the country's second largest city Tartu, and only 80 km (50 miles) south of Helsinki, Finland.

Tallinn has a highly diversified economy with particular strengths in information technology, tourism and logistics. Over half of the Estonian GDP is created in Tallinn.

The Finns are especially a common sight in Tallinn; on average, about 20,000–40,000 Finnish tourists visit the city between June and October.
