Slovakia: The Bradt Travel Guide

Bradt Travel Guides

One of the great Baroque cities of central Europe, Bratislava sits at the strategic meeting point of three countries Slovakia, Austria and Hungary. This city guide to Slovakia’s hitherto almost unknown capital gives full details on where to stay and eat plus a whole range of outdoor activities including cycling, rafting and hiking. Explore the car-free center; soak up the buzz of sidewalk cafés and tree-lined squares or visit stunningly restored Baroque and Rococo buildings. Further afield, sample some of Slovakia's internationally recognised wine in the cellars along the Small Carpathian Wine Route. A relative newcomer to the tourist scene, Bratislava is still very much a peaceful and pleasant place to explore.
