And the reason why is so protected is that it&#8217;s one of <strong>the few medieval centers<\/strong> that still remains well preserved. Unlike <strong>other cities in Europe<\/strong> that were <strong>devastated by either invasions or wars<\/strong>, Tallinn managed to maintain itself relatively intact.  <\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, <strong>Estonians<\/strong> have also managed to embed all <strong>the high technology of today<\/strong> into the city itself without damaging its appearance a single bit. Imagine WiFi by the candle lights. Speaking of which, one particular place worth visiting is <strong>&#8220;Kiek in de K\u00f6k&#8221;<\/strong> and <strong>the medieval high-tech underground tunnels<\/strong> that have been used for everything imaginable, from <strong>military quarters in the 17th century<\/strong> to <strong>nuclear shelter during the cold war<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n<h3>Cruise Of Trakai<\/h3>\n<p>One of <strong>the best experiences you can have in Trakai<\/strong>. Take <strong>a boat trip<\/strong> around <strong>the castle and relax<\/strong>. Make yourself comfortable contemplate the views, <strong>the villages on the banks of the lake<\/strong>, <em>the magnificent Trakai Manor House<\/em>, and of course <strong>The unique Castle of Trakai<\/strong>. If you fancy, have a drink (or two) a little snack and enjoy yourself in <strong>the peace and quietness<\/strong> of one of <strong>the most beautiful places in Europe<\/strong>.   <\/p>\n<h3>Rundale Palace \u2013 Latvia<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Rundale Palace \u2013 Latvia<\/strong> is to the Baltic what Versailles is to France or <strong>L&#8217;Hermitage is to Russia<\/strong>. As a matter of fact, <strong>Bartolomeo Rastrelli the famous Italian architect<\/strong> designed both <strong>The Winter Palace in St. Petersburg<\/strong> and <strong>Rund\u0101le Palace in Pilsrund\u0101le, Latvia<\/strong>.
