Tartu Estonia

We visited Tartu, the second largest city in Estonia. It is a college town, so it has a more vibrant feel. The old town, where the college is located, has a bit of a modern edge to it. We enjoyed the change from old to a younger vibe.

The "Leaning House"  One side of the foundation was built on wooden pilings which eventually sank. Now the house has a definite lean.
