Slovakia or Slovak Republic is a landlocked country in Central Europe. Not to be confused with Slovenia. It is surrounded by Austria to the west, Czech Republic to the northwest, Hungary to the south, Poland to the north and Ukraine to the east. Slovakia is a modern democratic country and is a member of the European Union.
The main reasons to visit Slovakia are its natural beauty, vivid history and great opportunities for relaxation (and due to the small size of the country, it is quite easy to combine all three). For the same reasons Lonely Planet put it in as number 5 on its Best in Travel 2013 - Top 10 countries list [2], being best for culture, adventure and off the beaten track.
Slovakia has nine national parks, which cover a relatively big portion of the country and feature the tallest part of the Carpathian Mountain Range, the High Tatras, which offer great opportunities for mountain and winter sports as well as great vistas. Geologically, a sizable part of Slovakia is made out of limestone, which in combination with many springs and rivers has resulted in formation of numerous caves (12 open to the public, several of which are UNESCO listed) and the beautiful rocky formations, canyons and waterfalls of the Slovak Paradise and Slovak Karst. Even outside these areas, there are some beautiful landscapes, and all of Slovakia is covered by thousands of well-marked hiking trails.
For history lovers, Slovakia has the highest number of castles and chateaux per capita in the world, ranging from simple ruins to well-preserved habitable castles with furnishings, so if you are a fan of medieval history, look no further. There are also numerous Gothic and Baroque cities and towns across Slovakia, including the capital. There are also well-preserved examples of wooden folk architecture, including churches made entirely out of wood and the tallest wooden altar in the world.
There are numerous mineral and thermal springs in Slovakia, and around some of these world-famous spas have been built that offer great curative therapies or just simple relaxation. You can also chill out, swim and sunbathe at the shores of several local lakes and pools or try AquaCity water park if you are feeling more adventurous. In particular, Bratislava boasts a lively nightlife as well and is a popular partying destination.

Bratislava, the capital with its beautiful historic center, Bratislava Castle and several churches and museums
Slovakia features a record-high number of castles and chateaux [15]. Some of them are little more than a pile of stones hidden in a deep forest, others are luxurious baroque mansions or citadels in the middle of towns. Especially worthwhile for tourists are the Spiš Castle, reported to be the largest castle in Central Europe, the Bojnice Castle built in the 19th century in a pseudo-romanesque style, and Devín Castle, an ancient archeological site and a sacred place for all Slavs

Historic Town of Banska Stiavnica (Slovakia) - Travel Guide
Take a tour of Historic Town of Banska Stiavnica in Banska Stiavnica, Slovakia -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
Banska Stiavnica, a small city in Slovakia, was once an important medieval mining town for silver and gold.
The center of the city is a preserved medieval town, with many historical buildings, such as Saint Catherine Church.
One of the central features of the town is the Trinity Square, centered around a monument commemorating the plague.
The area has been a mining area for thousands of years, but the current town was established around the twelfth century.
Banska Stiavnica saw the height of its mining activity between the thirteenth and eighteenth centuries as one of the most productive mining regions in Europe.
The city has the unusual claim of having two castles, both of which now operate as museums.
The Old Castle is a simple keep with four towers, while the New Castle is a larger and more elegant structure.
The mining facilities of Banska Stiavnica have become a large open-air museum, allowing visitors to explore the history here.
