visit Bratislava

been to the High Tatras. Want to go to Bratislava.

It was a lovely place! Much better than what I’ve expected! It’s perfect to spend one day there! There is a castle, a palace and the UFO restaurant, and lovely cosy streets. I’m glad I visited finally. I only regret that I didn’t find that blue church.

I visited Bratislava briefly in Nov. 2007 and loved it. The remnants of Soviet influence mixed with changes that have been made to invite tourism make it a lovely, interesting destination. Do it! You’ll be glad you did.

small for a capital and not too much to see, but a great atmosephere, very friendly people,the most amazing blue church and easy on the eyes!!! worth a visit.

but this city really appeals to me!

Went here in 2003.

Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. It offers an appealing glimpse of central European architecture, history and culture.

The city, just a short drive from both Hungary and Austria, spreads out on along the banks of the Danube River at the foot of the vineyard-dotted Low Carpathian Mountains. After decades of communist rule, Bratislava has recently undergone a cultural reawakening, and tourists are beginning to rediscover the city’s charming baroque old town, historic Gothic treasures, welcoming cafes and upbeat nightlife. In the heart of the museum-packed old town, visitors flock to Bratislava Castle, which served as a frontier post for the Roman Empire in the first century A.D. Restored most recently in the mid-1900s, the castle offers fascinating history and stunning views. An 11th century Gothic cathedral and the ruins of the royal palace of Hungary help tell the story of a city with a long and difficult past but a bright, cosmopolitan future.

I didn’t get the best out of it last summer so defenately one of those places I should visit twice (or more) in my life.

Come for a visit :-)
