Basketball court




Have played there myself only few times, as the court belongs to the Russian school and few years ago they added a fence around their property, but that doesn't keep anybody away.

Tartu Turu Bridge




Built exclusively for pedestrians and cyclist allowing those who live in Jaamamõisa and Annelinn cross the river in much less time than before. I think one of the best new structures built in Tartu in the past 50 years.

Mäe street's sun




When I was young I was a bit afraid of Mäe street, as there was the orphanage and some of the Sunday school classes took part there and I know I didn't feel comfortable, but not these are distant memories and I can enjoy such lovely sun bursts in Mäe street.

Tartu St. Peter's church




If there is such thing in my life, as a home church, then this is it. Went to Sunday school there and got christened and if to except some winter concerts and some photo shoots, then that is that. But nevertheless the building is something on its own.

Former LEGO store





In the 90's, when we regained our independence or just before that a little luxury stores appeared. One of those was this, which was a home to a LEGO store. I went there many times to drool, but had no such money to buy anything. I didn't bother even my parents for any of what was on sale there.

Ruins




This used to be a nice and renovated building for many years, until 10 years or so ago, it just became empty and I think in spring 2018 they started demolishing it. I guess new one may be there already.
