Tartu is Estonia's second-largest city and is widely regarded as the country's intellectual and cultural center. Located in southeastern Estonia, the city is home to the University of Tartu, the nation's oldest and most prestigious university, founded in 1632. This academic heritage has significantly shaped the city's character, creating an atmosphere where education, research, and the arts flourish.

The city's historic center features a blend of architectural styles, from medieval to neoclassical, with the Town Hall Square (Raekoja plats) serving as its heart. Tartu's cultural landscape includes numerous museums, theaters, and research institutions, making it a significant hub for Estonian art, science, and innovation. The city's position along the Emajõgi River has historically influenced its development as a trade center and continues to contribute to its scenic urban landscape.
