The Kadriorg Palace Gardens

Kadriorg Palace in Tallinn was built by Peter the Great for Catherine I of Russia — I wouldn't mind having a palace built for me, especially one as gorgeous as this one!

There's nothing like hiking through a marsh on a slightly damp day! At least the views are awesome. This is Kõnnu Suursoo national park, in Estonia.
