A poetry trail portraying lines from 30 Estonian poems has been launched in Tallinn. The texts, which can be found in all districts of the capital, make up a cultural tour of the city.<\/p>\n
Tallinn Poetry Trail has been compiled by young poets E<\/strong>lisabeth Heinsalu<\/strong> and Reijo Roos<\/strong> in cooperation with the city of Tallinn. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n “The lines of poetry relate to specially chosen locations, and among the authors, in addition to many new creators, there are also familiar names from Maarja Kangro<\/strong> to T\u00f5nu \u00d5nnepalu<\/strong>,” Roos explained.<\/span><\/p>\n One such line of poetry from T\u00f5nu \u00d5nnepalu, can be found outside the city\u2019s tallest building, Oleviste Church, that reads, <\/span>\u201cAnd even higher is the light \/ and the churches stretch their crosses \/ so that the light kisses them.” <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span>\u201cThere is room in Tallinn for both larger and smaller street art projects, and any such venture that brings “colour” to urban space is worth doing,” stated Deputy Mayor of Tallinn Kaarel Oja<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n It is worth bearing in mind that all texts are in Estonian.<\/span><\/p>\n An online Poetry Trail Map containing all the locations and poem texts can be found <\/span>here<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
