The heart of the city is the Old Town, where the Raekoja Plats (Town Hall Square) and the famous Kissing Students Fountain create a lively atmosphere surrounded by beautiful historic buildings and cobblestone streets. A short walk away is the University of Tartu, one of the oldest universities in Northern Europe. Its historic buildings, such as the University of Tartu Art Museum and Assembly Hall, are worth a visit, while the scenic Toome Hill behind the university offers peaceful walking paths through lush parks. On Toome Hill itself, the grand ruins of Tartu Cathedral are a must-see for history lovers. Climb the towers for panoramic views of the city, or simply explore the picturesque Toome Hill Park with its numerous monuments and serene atmosphere.

The AHHAA Science Centre is the largest interactive science museum in the Baltics, offering hands-on exhibits, a planetarium, and educational activities perfect for both children and adults. For a nostalgic trip down memory lane, visit the Tartu Toy Museum, which features a vast collection of toys from different eras, as well as interactive displays and play areas. Nature enthusiasts will enjoy the peaceful Botanical Garden of the University of Tartu, where they can stroll through beautifully maintained gardens, greenhouses, and ponds. The scenic Emajõgi River is another must-see, with its picturesque riverwalks perfect for biking or walking. You can also take a boat cruise to enjoy Tartu from the water. For a more quirky experience, explore the Supilinn District, known for its colorful wooden houses and bohemian vibe. Finally, history buffs should not miss the KGB Cells Museum, which provides a sobering look at Estonia’s Soviet-era history.

Cannabis in Estonia – Laws

marijuana use is illegal in Estonia, but the government has softened it to a certain degree. This means that possession of cannabis for personal consumption is no longer a crime but a misdemeanor as previously, it was a criminal offense

If you possess fewer than 7.5 grams of dry cannabis, there will be no punishment, but if you possess more than that, fines and possible detainment are considered.

Whatever you do, don’t drive under the influence. In Tallinn, police come down harshly on drink driving and some traffic offences. If you are pulled over and you are stoned on top of that, you may well see the inside of a jail cell.

Where and How to Buy Marijuana:

The best advise I can give is to find well connected ex-pats. Who may know a local who knows someone who can connect you. A lot of the students smoke cannabis but hardly openly as most of them cannot afford the fines.

Your best shot is to ask around the young locals. Check out the bars, nightclubs, student hostels and lounges. Be polite, look and chat like a stoner because students are always suspicious of the police. If you are lucky someone will help you or connect you to a dealer.
