Tartu trip

I love to travel in the Baltic countries. Especially Estonia. Mind you, I have only done so once, but I have vowed to return. On my trip through Estonia, I stopped by Tartu for a few days. This is Estonia's second largest city (after the capital, Tallinn), and its main university city. The town was small and really pretty. I took a few photos:


Tartu's city hall on the main square.


In front of the city hall I found this cool statue slash fountain of two lovers in the rain.

Tartu University's main building.

Near the university you can find this neat building with painted-on windows.

The bridge of tears (or bridge of love, I forget).

Interesting statue of man and boy - notice they are the same size... weird.
