Bratislava is known for its laid-back atmosphere. Enjoy walks in the historic city center, have a cup of coffee in one of the countless coffee shops, and relax. In the Old Town, everything is within the walking distance. Explore romantic alleys, a Gothic cathedral, medieval city walls, beautiful palaces, and lively historic squares without any haste.
Perched on a hill where people have dwelled since the Stone Age and where the Celts minted their well-known Biatec coins, Bratislava Castle stands tall as the most impressive landmark in the city. For centuries, it was overseeing the intersection of Europe’s major trade routes – the Danube River and the Amber Road. Today, it exhibits a historical museum and a baroque garden. The castle walls and the castle park remain accessible at all times, offering one of the finest views of the city’s panorama.
