Slovakia Travel

A day or two it is not enough to explore Bratislava – the capital of Slovakia. Thanks to the fact that practically all the local attractions are situated within walking distance of each other, you will be able to go sightseeing on foot. St. Martin’s Cathedral and Slovak National Museum, Bratislava castle, and Devin castle – the sights of Bratislava impress even the most experienced traveler.

Slovakia is a country of castles and small medieval villages. Do not loose time and head for the castle of Spiš, which is the largest medieval castle complex in the middle Europe. The Slovenský karst (the greatest karst area in the middle Europe with 1110 caves and gulfs) is also worth visited. Explore the hidden beauty of such accessible spots as Domica, Jasovská, Gombasecká and Krásnohorská caves, which are the part of the UNESCO World Heritage.

It won’t take you much time to get to Ružomberok with its picturesque Vlkolínec, former separate village and now the old part of the city. You will be fascinated with this oasis of folk architecture and unique atmosphere of the essence of Slovakia. The country can boast having some UNESCO World Heritage Sites. You are recommended to visit the historic town of Banská Štiavnica and Bardejov Town Conservation Reserve, have a rest at the Primeval Beech Forests of the Carpathians and enjoy the beauty of the wooden churches of the Slovak part of Carpathian Mountain Area.
