<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n The exhibition \u201cEncounters<\/b>\u201d takes you on a journey in time from this century all the way back to the stoneage. \u201cWe do not show our visitors our success stories (Olympic Winners, Authors, etc), but pass on the stories of simple ordinary people and how they survived different time periods,\u201d L\u00e4\u00e4n points out.<\/p>\n This exhibition includes Estonia\u2019s first ever flag, along with the stories of the students who not only created it, but those more than 60 years later who carefully hid it from soviet forces.<\/p>\n The other permanent exhibition \u201c”Echo of the Urals<\/b>” takes visitors beyond the borders of modern day Estonia to learn about other Finno-Ugric peoples (those from the same language group). To learn about their lives and cultures. In the exhibition, you will be able to see what it was like to live in a S\u00e1mi house, go to a Karelian Sauna and much more. <\/span><\/p>\n You will, however, need to pay special attention as you go around this internationally award-winning exhibition, as you will need to enter a special code to get out. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cBeauty of Colours. Golden Age of Estonian Art<\/b>\u201d showcases the best in early 20th-century art from the collection of famous Estonian art collector Enn Kunila<\/b>, a period often referred to as the golden age of art in Estonia. <\/span>As L\u00e4\u00e4n <\/span>explains, \u201cthe most famous names in Estonian art are represented in this exhibition.\u201c This includes the likes of Konrad M\u00e4gi<\/strong>, Ants Laikmaa<\/strong>, and Nikolai Triik<\/strong>. Some of the paintings are also being exhibited to the public for the very first time. The exhibition is open till October 8.<\/p>\n The other main temporary <\/span><\/b>exhibition \u201cUniverse of the Farmyard: Creators of Southern Estonia\u201d <\/b>takes visitors on a journey to South Estonia through the artworks of around 50 artists from the area. These include Karl P\u00e4rsim\u00e4gi<\/strong>, Konstantin S\u00fcvalo<\/strong>, Jaan Vahtra<\/strong>, and Eduard R\u00fcga<\/strong>. <\/b><\/span>The exhibition is open until August 21.<\/p>\n Don\u2019t be surprised to come across smaller mini exhibitions around hidden little corners in the museum. Currently, you will find one on hand-made wooden canoes, as well as tattoos from the soviet era. \u201cIn soviet time, getting a tattoo wasn\u2019t something that was really allowed or accepted in society, but if you had free will and still wanted, you got.\u201d Little mini exhibitions like this really showcase the museum\u2019s ethos to share the lives of ordinary people. <\/span><\/p>\n Eesti Rahva Museum is also quite famous for its smart ticket system that can change the texts in the smart displays to your chosen language. These include Finnish, English, Estonian, Russian, and others. <\/span>You can also save certain topics to read more when you get home. <\/span><\/p>\n Tickets for the entire museum cost 14 for adults and 10 euros for seniors and students. It is also possible to buy cheaper tickets for single exhibitions. <\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Estonian National Museum<\/strong><\/a>, Muuseumi tee 2, Tartu.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Earlier this summer, three restaurants in Tartu were recognised in Estonia\u2019s first ever Michelin Guide.
