Keskturg — Attraction in Tallinn

Nice as it is, I like the old style... unfortunately soon it will be totally renovated, so we will lose this wonderful atmosphere... for younger people probably it will be even better. Anyway here you can find almost everything you need at good prices. Sometimes you'll notice that something is more expensive than in a supermarket, but the quality is much better, so that's important, at least to me. People are friendly, but don't expect they would speak English. You can find meat, fish, spices, dried fruits, fresh vegetables and fruits, bread, eggs, a lot of different cheese, milk, Russian traditional cookies and more inside. Outside there are many small "shops" in which you can find clothes, organic food, supplements, honey, some food ready to eat and stuff that you can find only here. Take a look, Keskturg is worth of... go now, before everything will be...

We scored some fruits and veggies from around the world 🌍 - Greek and Polish strawberries, Italian and Iranian watermelons (who knew?), local greenhouse tomatoes that were TO DIE FOR 😋! We also found a tiny gardening shop with rare flower seeds 🌼, an antique shop with hidden treasures 🏹️, and even fresh + canned fish right outside 🐟! Plus, there's basic clothing, shoes, and groceries to round out the experience 🛍️. All in all, it's a fun ...

This is the ultimate trip 30 years back in time.

Location is very close to the center, Hilton, Swissotel and Stockmann.

You can buy most any fruit or vegetable that's in season, and prices are friendlier than at other markets. You can also buy great chebureks and beljashes and other such pies - you just need to find those two kiosks.

Some parts of the market are not for the overly sensitive people - like the meat hall. For the rest of you, who know what meat looks like before it becomes a dish - it's ok.

Language-wise, you might need to use a bit more body language than usual, because English is placed on 3rd position after Estonian and Russian, but you will manage.

I suggest this place for an off-beaten track (also for...
