Why visit Bratislava

Sights and Landmarks

Slovakia lacks the glitz of its former compatriot, the Czech Republic, but since its independence in 1993, the country's been shedding its Eastern Bloc past and embracing its own folk culture. The capital of Bratislava is a popular destination but don't bypass the old-world essence of places such as the Spis castle overlooking Spisske Podhradie; Liptovska Sielnica, with its historical homes; and the spas of Piestany. Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy hiking and skiing in the High Tatras.

Museums

Cruises

Stare Mesto, the Old Town of Slovakia's capital, whisks visitors back a few centuries as they wander cobblestone streets, admire the Baroque architecture, enjoy summer and Christmas concerts at Old Town Hall and while away time at cafes and restaurants. Venture beyond for more sites, including the 15th-century hrad (castle), the Slovak National Theater, the Slovak Philharmonic Orchestra, and the Slovak National Gallery, housed in an 18th-century palace.
