“It is difficult to say how many people visit Tallinn in the summer months. One can get an impression that the population has got multiplied. In the old centre of the town, the narrow streets with low houses make one feel peculiarly cosy here. The cafés, shops, snacks bars and offices are located in a rational manner, they are invitingly cosy and intimate. The centre of the town has become, so to speak, the contact zone of the old and young people.”
– G. German, Tallinn, Eesti Raamat, Tallinn, 1978
