BRATISLAVA TOURISM - Slovakia charming capital
Welcome to the capital of slovakia ... Bratislava,
Bratislava - a city of roughly half a million inhabitants - is a beautiful Slovak capital. Indeed, Bratislava looks like a younger sister when compared to its neighboring capitals-Budapest, Vienna, and Prague. Bratislava may be proud of its lucrative location on the Danube, the second longest river in Europe.
At the beginning of the 20th century, Bratislava has become a multinational and multicultural city. We can visit the beautifully reconstructed Bratislava Castle. From the garden, we can enjoy beautiful views of the city stretching on either side of the Danube.
Below the hill, just below the castle area, we find the Old Town, the historical center of Bratislava. Walking down a narrow path full of diversity, we feel as though we lived in the past centuries. We admire the architecture of the palaces and houses of interesting middle class. If you want, we can also stop at one of the historic cafes to sip a cup of coffee or tea, or taste the famous pastries from Bratislava filled with walnuts or poppy seeds.
Throughout the year, visitors enjoy a leisurely stroll along the banks of the Danube near the Old City. Here, they must have encountered the symbol of modern Bratislava-the New Bridge with its restaurant on a leaning tower. The design is impressive as if the restaurant was floating above the Petrzalka residential area on the other side of the river.
If you feel there are many buildings being built in Bratislava, you are right. In addition to some parts of the recently reconstructed Old Town, there are also interesting buildings of steel-and-glass that flourished in the 1990s even today. Offices, business centers, and banking is what gives a modern twist to the city.
Sure, you are interested in bringing home interesting souvenirs. So, we can stop by the shops that sell handmade products, such as beautiful lace tablecloths or dolls dressed in national costumes. Or, if you want, we can go to the Main Square Market, where we can shop as Bratislava residents have done for centuries. You can also visit the exciting Watch Tower Branch Office in this city.
Maybe one day you will actually visit Bratislava. And, if so, you will undoubtedly enjoy this modern capital of variation, evolving from an ancient crossing.
