When it comes to arriving to a particular destination, it´s advisable to choose options that gather most of our interests. Our decisions will likely change depending on whether we travel with our family or alone. Travelling alone or with company has its pros and cons, and before going to a new destination it´s worth checking out exhaustively which options do we have at hand as well as the touristy ones. If it´s just about shopping in general, which is your favourite option? Small independent shops or a big shopping centre with all the choices in a single space? Generally, shopping centres aren´t particularly popular with travellers. However, if you´re in Rocca al Mare in Tallinn you´ll be in the city´s main shopping centre that´s an attraction that you can´t miss out on and that can articulate most of your visit in this famous area.
The Rocca al Mare shopping centre is a famous shopping mall in the Estonian capital, Tallinn, which is of course the biggest city in the country. It´s worth highlighting the location of Tallinn on the coasts of the Gulf of Finland, close to Stockholm and Helsinki and west of St Petersburg, which gives it a strong cosmopolitan boost combining it with its long history. The closeness of these three important cities make Tallinn an even more attractive place for tourists from all over Europe and the world, as well as for trade. The oldest side of the city is considered a World Heritage Site by UNESCO, since it was founded around the 13th century.
The Rocca al Mare shopping centre was inaugurated in 1998 and inside you can find all the best international and local fashion brands as well as good services such as restaurant and recreation areas and everything that a good shopping centre should have. The shopping centre takes its name from the area it´s in and, from the shopping centre, you can also discover the Tallinn Zoo that has a varied list of species from around the world. Equally as interesting or perhaps even more is the great Open Air Museum, that´s located very close to the shopping centre, contrasting modernity, tradition and history.
This museum is a very interesting experience and it consists in a whole area of Rocca al Mare that´s a group of classic farmhouses with over 100 years of age in a beautiful forest that´s also close to the sea. This complex has over twenty houses that can be visited and thus see their design and Estonia´s cultural tradition.
