Tallinn Maps and Orientation
(Tallinn, Harjumaa, Estonia, EE)



Located on Estonia's northerly shore, the city of Tallinn is home to a significant seaport and lively centre. Tallinn lies alongside the scenic Gulf of Finland and slightly to the north of central Estonia, within the county of Harju.

Tallinn is an unusual city, since is does not feature a large and central river. Instead, the only notable river in Tallinn can be found within the suburban area of Pirita, a particularly beautiful area, which is known for its natural scenery.
