   This is the loviest picture of Tallinn I´ve seen in your set. Guess it is because the angle is so natural that re-makes me feel as if I was there myself taking the picture…

   Maybe?

   Just read that the very first Xmas tree came from here… True? from Times Online

   

   "The picturesque Town Hall Square is said to be the site of the world’s first Christmas tree, which formed part of a ritual begun in 1441, when unmarried merchants sang and danced with the town’s girls around a tree, which they then burned."
