Tartu, nestled in the heart of Estonia, is the country’s second largest city adorned with phenomenal charm and cultural heritage. Known as the intellectual hub of Estonia, it is celebrated for being home to the nation's oldest and most revered university, the University of Tartu. This vibrant city boasts a blend of contemporary artistry and rich history, evident in its various museums and art galleries such as the Estonian National Museum and Tartu Art Museum. One can also encounter stunning 18th-century structures like Tartu Town Hall and historical landmarks such as the sublime Tartu Cathedral amidst the city's picturesque streetscape. Alongside this, the alluring Emajõgi River that winds through the city, and iconic landmarks like the ‘Kissing Students’ statue in the Town Hall Square, augment Tartu's captivating appeal.

Very safe and pleasant city, it’s clean and the old part of town is very pretty as well as some neigbourhoods. Loved the national museum and the many cute cafes.
