ESTONIA – NATURE, INNOVATION, AND THE NORDIC WAY OF LIFE
a presentation by Evely Baum-Helmis (Visit Estonia)
Estonia is a land of contrasts, where pristine nature, Nordic tranquility, and digital innovation come together. More than half of the country is covered by forests, interspersed with peaceful lakes, mystical bog landscapes, a coastline stretching over 3,800 kilometres, and more than 2,000 islands. Untouched national parks, charming coastal villages, and authentic experiences far from mass tourism make this small country an ideal destination for travellers seeking both relaxation and discovery.
At the same time, Estonia is one of Europe's most digitally advanced countries. Innovation and sustainability go hand in hand here, naturally shaping the country's modern way of life.
The heart of Estonia beats in its capital, Tallinn. The city combines medieval charm with creative urban culture and is one of Northern Europe's most exciting destinations. Strolling through the historic streets of the Old Town, discovering innovative restaurants, creative districts such as Telliskivi, and cosy cafés, visitors can experience the modern Nordic lifestyle at every turn. Thanks to its compact size, Tallinn is also the perfect base from which to explore the many facets of Estonia with ease.
