Highlights
Nested on the Danube river between Austria and Hungary, the capital of Slovakia has always been a place of turmoil between Austrians, Croats, Czechs, Germans, Hungarians, Serbs and Slovaks. The city itself was only baptized as Bratislava in 1919 and was formerly known with the Germanic name of Pressburg. Today the city oozes style, culture and history, with its baroque architecture, music and art. Come with us to know in detail the Coronation Church where Hungarian royalty were once crowned, to discover medieval walls of St. Michael's Gate and the many picturesque human-size sculptures scattered all over the Old Town. This city will leave an impression, giving you many opportunities for some memorable pictures.
