peatänava

Peatänava is a small, residential street located in the Pirita district of Tallinn, Estonia. It is a relatively quiet area, characterized by detached houses and some apartment buildings. The street runs in a generally north-south direction and is accessible from the larger Merivälja tee.

The surrounding area of Pirita is known for its proximity to the Baltic Sea and its green spaces, including Pirita Beach and the Pirita Convent ruins. Peatänava itself is lined with trees and gardens, contributing to a pleasant, suburban atmosphere. Its location offers residents relatively easy access to both the natural beauty of the Pirita coastline and the amenities of the city center via public transport or car.

While not a major thoroughfare, peatänava serves as a local access road for its residents. Like many streets in this part of Tallinn, it reflects a mix of older and more recently constructed housing. The street’s name, likely derived from Estonian words related to peat or marshland, hints at the historical landscape of the region before its development.
