Telliskivi Creative City — Attraction in Tallinn

Telliskivi Creative City is an interesting concept, but I found it a bit overhyped. Maybe it comes alive during special events, markets, or festivals, but outside of that, it felt quite empty and underwhelming. I visited both on a weekday and a Saturday, hoping to catch a local flea market or some buzz, but even with the Da Vinci immersive exhibit happening, the area felt rather quiet and dull.

Alternative shops area in the town constituted with restaurants , art shops, craft shops, pret-a-porter and various clothing shops. All indies which is great. Also galleries. All those shops are located in all industrial buildings of several floors. But something missing here. Indeed , it is a bit complex to find you way even with the maps that are shown quite often. Thee are restaurants but you would enjoy a quick-junkie-food somewhere to get a coffee or a sandwich. Few places offer that but there is no real choice.

Then the shops are disseminated across buildings and moving from and to another building is not super convenient, you lose yourself quite a bit between street trashes, construction and actual places.

Some street arts stuff are actually a...
