Bratislava is Slovakia's capital and well worth a visit. In this vlog, we show you the best of Bratislava. This includes its charming Old Town, delicious Slovak food, and the famous Bratislava Castle.
These are the best sights in Bratislava:
St. Michael’s Gate
During medieval times, Bratislava was surrounded by walls. Michael’s Gate is the only gate remaining and an entrance to the Old Town.
Main Square
Bratislava’s Main Square has the Maximillian Fountain, cafes, shops, and many of the cities landmarks.
Primates Palace
It is located in Bratislava’s Old Town. It is a pink palace that is home to the mayor’s office. Inside the palace is the famous Hall of Mirrors.
Cumil
Bratislava has several statues. Cumil is the most famous one. It is a bronze statue of a sewer worker peaking his head from a manhole.
Blue Church
The Church of St. Elizabeth is a Catholic Church in the Old Town of Bratislava. It is called the Blue Church because of its pastel blue color.
Bratislava Flagship Restaurant
This restaurant is the perfect place to enjoy Slovak cuisine. Here we tried garlic cream soup in a bread bowl. We also tried a sampler platter that had dumplings with sheep cheese, pirogi with sheep cheese, and dumplings with cabbage and bacon. They also have a brewery, so we tried the local beer.
St. Martin’s Cathedral
It is one of the oldest churches in Bratislava. It is known as the coronation church because the Kingdom of Hungary’s coronations happened there.
Old Walls
From St. Martin’s Cathedral, you can see remnants of Bratislava’s old walls. We walked along the walls, crossed the bridge, and climbed up a lot of steps to make it to the Bratislava Castle.
UFO Bridge
Nový Most, also known as the UFO Bridge goes over the Danube River. It has a flying saucer structure at the top that is an observation deck and a restaurant serving traditional Slovak food.
Bratislava Castle
It sits high on a hill overlooking the Danube River. It is Bratislava’s main tourist attraction. It was home to many members of the Habsburg family.
