Here I am standing on the Toompea, the hill where the elites of the city used to live. Next is St. Olav's Church, for over a century it was the world's tallest building (the original spire was about 120 feet taller but burned down after repeated lightning strikes).
I found that there to be such contrast between the old Soviet remnants and the West. Here were two buildings that were just one building apart and yet represent a major divide.
Last here's a picture of the town square
