This a view from hill called Suur Munamägi (318 m), which is located in the middle part of Haanja uplands (Võru county). It's the highest point in Estonia and other two Baltic countries. On the top of the Suur Munamägi there is an observation tower – the view from 346.7 meters is 50 km in radius. You can see three countries from here - Estonia, Russia and Latvia.
This year current observation tower here celebrated it's 75-th anniversary.
