    • Nice but Niguliste tower is better

      Nice spot but crowded with tour groups. If you go to the Niguliste Museum anyway or have a Estonian Museum's card visit their tower. Less people, nice 360' view.

      Viewing Point Kohtuotsa is on top of Toompea Hill overlooking Old Town Tallinn. It is a wonderful place to take panoramic photos. Our Airbnb was only a short walk to reach the viewing area.
