Telliskivi Creative City
Telliskivi Creative City is a former industrial complex just north of the Old Town, converted into a hub of studios, cafes, vintage shops, and street art. Free to walk through. The Saturday flea market (Balti Jaama Turg) next door is one of the cheapest places to eat in Tallinn. Budget travelers come for the contrast between the medieval Old Town and this raw creative district, and eat lunch at the market stalls for a fraction of restaurant prices.
