Just 60 kilometers from Vienna, Bratislava is the capital and largest city of Slovakia. This city of less than half a million inhabitants is small enough to visit in a day or a little more. And it has enough attractions to make you go home fascinated. You do not believe me? Seriously, do not listen to those who say that visiting Bratislava is not worth it. It seemed to me a fairytale city, vibrant, dynamic, and perfect for an economic getaway.
The Castle is, without a doubt, one of the essential places to see in Bratislava. This square, white fortress stands on a rocky hill by the Danube in the center of the Slovak capital. Originally built between the 9th and 18th centuries, on May 28, 1811, it suffered a great fire that destroyed it. Bratislava Castle was in ruins until the 1950s, when the local government decided to completely rebuild it.
If you don’t have much time, you don’t need to go inside the fortress. Taking a stroll through its gardens, looking up over the rooftops of Bratislava and the mighty Danube and around it should quench your thirst for castles. Inside it today are the exhibits of the Slovak National Museum, the Treasury Chamber, the National Council of the Slovak Republic and even a concert hall.
