Viljandi

Viljandi is a town and municipality in southern Estonia. It is the capital of Viljandi County. The town was first mentioned in 1283, upon being granted its town charter by Wilhelm von Endorpe. The city is situated on the north-western shore of Lake Viljandi, which lies in the primeval valley. Green zones cover 27% of the city area. Viljandi is sometimes called the cultural capital of Estonia, partly due to the Viljandi Culture Academy being located there. On the card there is the view of Viljandi, Old Water Tower, Town Hall and Suspension bridge in Castle Hills.
