Estonia: attractions, cities, recreation

Holidays in Estonia

Holidays in Estonia are walks in the fresh air along the shores of the Baltic Sea, stay in modern spas and, of course, get acquainted with the sights of the cities of the republic. The main city of Estonia, attracting the attention of tourists, is its capital - the city of Tallinn. However, other localities, resorts and small towns, where a special spirit reigns, are of no less interest. There are only four major cities in Estonia: Tallinn, Tartu, Pärnu and Narva. Their history goes back several centuries. The most important sights of Estonia are concentrated here - ancient castles, houses and city streets, museums, monuments of architecture and sculptural compositions that have survived from the Middle Ages. You should also pay attention to the suburbs, where you can also find a lot of beautiful places for recreation and cultural experiences. Estonia can be proud not only of its cities with a long history, but also of beautiful nature. Local forests and lakes deserve special attention. Of particular interest are tourist swamps, many of which are located near large cities. Nature holidays in Estonia are best planned in summer, when the weather is conducive to long-term outdoor living. However, it is equally interesting to look at the marsh and in the snowy winter when the landscape changes beyond recognition and becomes unusually mysterious. Estonia is a great place to relax, familiar to many from childhood. In addition to historical attractions, today there are many interactive museums here, festivals and exhibitions are held regularly. Do not miss your chance to get acquainted with this small Baltic republic and take part in exciting events.

Solomon Islands To the east of the island of Guinea are the Solomon Islands, a group of more than one thousand islands. About eighty of them hold most of the population of more than a half a million. The island of  Guadalcanal  was the site of some of the fiercest fighting in World War II between Japan and the United States. Honiara, the capital city, is on Guadalcanal. The Solomon Islands were a colony of Great Britain but gained independence in 1978. Colonialism, World War II, and ethnic conflict on the islands created serious centrifugal cultural forces, divisions, and political tensions over the past few decades. In 2003, military and police troops from other islands and Australia intervened to restore order after ethnic tension erupted into civil unrest. Shifting tectonic plates are the source of environmental problems. Active seismic activity has created earthquakes and tsunami conditions that have brought devastation to the region.

Tristan Da Cunha

History Before Doomsday Tristan da Cunha was annexed to the UK in 1816, mainly to prevent any Bonapartists from using it to mount a rescue mission to free Napoleon from Saint Helena. Gradually a colony took shape there. It was not until World War II that Britain organised Tristan da Cunha's government, designating it a dependency of St. Helena. Between 1961 and 1963, the entire population was resettled in Calshot, near Southampton, England, following a volcanic eruption. When they returned home, they left behind a small Tristanian community. Doomsday Tristan da Cunha did not have any military bases, so it was not a target during World War III. Like the rest of The British overseas territories, it lost communication with London. For a while, however, it was able to maintain contact with St. Helena and the Falkland Islands. News of the Doomsday attacks was received with horror. The island's society may have looked the picture of rugged self-reliance, but all the adult...
