- Why Nõmme? The garden neighborhood with hundreds of thousands of pine trees, this is the least densely populated and quietest suburb of the capital with street vibes from 1920s and 1930s. Highly recommended.
- History brief: only a few tiny villages before the 1880s when Nikolai von Glehn started to sell and rent plots. In 1900 already 300 romantic summer cottages and smaller villas were built. During the war years the building process slowed down but continued after that.
