Supilinn is a historic district located in the northwest of Tartu and it, actually, means Soup Town. Due to its many gardens,  its residents gave the streets vegetable/fruit names such as Meloni (Melon), Marja (Berry) or Kartuli (Potato). And so if you mixed all the streets in a big pot, you would get a soup, hence its name – Supilinn.

Typical streets in Supilinn…Typical doors…And some unusual doors…

There are many gorgeous houses in the area…Some great artwork on the walls…

And we also saw a few classic cars (I especially liked the mechanic! He he)…Don’t skip Supilinn if you ever visit Tartu!
