Bratislava OFFICIAL SPOT
Bratislava is the history, architecture, tradition, culture, art, drinks, food and nightlife.
Located on the River Danube, Bratislava is easily accessible. It’ a great place to hang out. The city is safe, friendly, hassle-free and there is always something worth doing; whether you’re here for an afternoon, a week or a year.
UNIQUE LOCATION
Bratislava has always been a flourishing and prosperous town, which has made the most of its strategic position on the Danube and at the intersections of important European trade routes. In the Mediaeval period and later in the 18th century, it was a significant economic centre and later, a cultural and political centre of Central Europe. It was thanks to its location that in the 16th Century, Bratislava i became the capital and coronation town of the Hungarian Kingdom and the place, where its crown jewels were kept. For one thing, it was remote from the invading Turks, yet close to imperial Vienna, from where the whole of the Austro-Hungarian Empire was governed for almost the following 500 years.
For a long time, Vienna and Bratislava were very closely connected economically, culturally and politically. In the 18th century, the Castle was rebuilt and served as a summer residence for Queen Maria Theresa who visited the town frequently. The main reason for her regular visits was the fact, that her favourite daughter, Maria Christine, lived here for almost 20 years.
The strategic location of the town had been considered a long-term advantage but suddenly in the middle of the 20th century it became a major disadvantage, when Bratislava had to pay heavily for its unique position. After the communists came to power in 1948, an Iron Curtain, visible from the city centre, was drawn. It brutally divided what had once been a single economic and cultural region.
Following the fall of communism in 1989, Bratislava could at last develop as a free town and re-establish its close relations with Vienna.Now, paradoxically, it was Vienna which held the excluded region back from its more rapid growth. Although much was resolved once Slovakia became a member of the European Union in 2004, the final impediment to the rapid development of the cross-border Euro-region was removed as late as 2007 when a motorway on the Austrian side came into operation and Slovakia became part of the Schengen group.

This is a video of my trip to Bratislava, Slovakia in December 2015.
I apologize for the 720p quality. I was messing around with the settings on my camera and forgot to switch the quality back to 1080p.
In this video I shared the highlights, main attractions, and other things to do in Bratislava that I checked out during my trip.
Bratislava is a beautiful place to visit, especially during the winter with the Bratislava Christmas Market and lack of tourists.
It's possible to is it Bratislava on a day trip from Vienna although I would recommend spending at least one night in Bratislava for a better Slovak experience.
Since Slovakia uses the Euro it's not as cheap in Bratislava as it is in places like Prague, Budapest, or Krakow.
Apart from that, Bratislava is an amazing place to visit and a must-see on any trip to Slovakia.

10 Things to do in Bratislava, Slovakia Travel Guide Video Transcript:
We're visiting Bratislava, Slovakia and in this video we're going to show you guys 10 things to do in Bratislava. Let's get started.
Our first stop was Devin Castle, which is located in Devin, a borough of Bratislava. This is the one attraction we visited that was a little further from the Old Town - a 30-minute bus ride.
Devin Castle is a ruined castle that sits on Slovak territory at the confluence of the Danube and Morava rivers.
We ate at a restaurant called “Modra Hviezda” which is located at the base of Bratislava Castle and feels like a cave.
Bratislava Castle was Built in the 9th century and modified over the centuries many times over, this 4-towered castle sits perched on a hill overlooking the Danube River.
You get nice views over the Old Town, plus you have the Slovak National Museum & the Baroque Gardens on the north side of the palace.
The following day, we set out to explore the Old Town and stopping cafe for a decadent breakfast.
Bratislava’s Old Town is compact & easy to explore on foot and cover most of the sights in one day. We went on our own do-it-yourself tour finding all sorts of interesting statues & landmarks.
The Blue Church is located on Bezručova Street, which is about a 10-15 minute walk from the Old Town designed in the art nouveau style.
Locals in Bratislava like to say that the best view of their city is from the UFO Bridge because you can’t see the UFO bridge. You get amazing views of Bratislava during sunset.
And while you’re down by the Danube, you can either enjoy a stroll along the river, or go on a sightseeing cruise.
Prašná bašta is another cozy restaurant located at basement level and we had another wonderful meal.
For sports fans be sure to check out a HC Slovan Bratislava ice hockey game. They play in the KHL and the level of hockey and entertainment value is fantastic.
And that’s a wrap for our trip to Bratislava. While we can see the appeal of doing this as a day trip from Vienna, we loved having the extra time to really enjoy the city, try out some great restaurants, and make it to some of the further attractions like Devin Castle. If you have a few days to spare, this is a great little capital to visit.
Any other things to do in Bratislava that we may have missed, feel free to share your suggestions with travellers in the comments below.
This is part of our Travel in Slovakia video series showcasing Slovak food (Slovakian food), Slovak culture (Slovakian culture) and Slovak cuisine (Slovakian cuisine).

About Bratislava :
Bratislava is the capital of Slovakia has a population of about 430,000, it is one of the smaller capitals of Europe but still the country's largest city.
#5 Transportation
In Bratislava, you buy tickets based on your duration of travel. Tram, Bus, Subway are easily available which can be navigated using the google map, and it’s pretty cheap. You need to validate the ticket once you board in the bus. There would be validator machine inside the bus, and your trip duration time starts from the time of validation in the machine. The ticket machines are available in almost all the bus stoppages, and the machines accept only coins, that is Euros! Another convenient way we found is that the ticket is same for bus, tram, subways which made all our journeys quite comfortable and hassle free.
#4 Bratislava Castle
Bratislava Castle is the main castle of Bratislava. The massive rectangular building with four corner towers stands on an isolated rocky hill of the Little Carpathians directly above the Danube river in the middle of Bratislava. Because of its size and location, it has been a dominant feature of the city for centuries. From the castle, you can have a breathtaking view of the entire city. The castle area is a huge one with an extended park and almost a day trip for travellers. It’s a treat to your eyes and you can definitely go for some greats shots in the place! You can see the UFO from there which is the skyscraper of Bratislava. Entrance to the castle is 10 Euros.
#3 Slavin's War Memorial
The largest war memorial in Central Europe is thanks to its height of 52 metres one of the dominating features of the city skyline. It is the burial ground of 6845 soldiers of the Soviet army who died during the liberation of Bratislava in World War II.This place takes you back to the memories and history of the european nation. It’s a must visit if you have a patriotic heart :)
#2 Old Town Square
The most vibrant and the historic center of Bratislava. The place which touched our heart the most in Bratislava.Bratislava's Old Town is known for its many churches, the Bratislava Riverfront and cultural institutions, it is also the location of most of the foreign states embassies and important Slovak institutions.Night life in old town is just so amazing. The streets are filled with street music and artistic backgrounds! You would find yourself just lost in the lanes of Old Town.We spent good amount of time there, both in the evening and daytime & the place has it’s own beauty during both the time zones.We both fell in love once again in Old Town :) Old Town is just a way to statues, amazing food, pubs, hang out joints and lovely crowd.
#1 Slovakian Food
Just have no words! My mouth is watering :) Slovakian food is just a different treat to your taste buds. We tried to taste almost all the major local cuisines of the place. Among which Potato and Cheese Dumplings, Sheep Cheese, Cheese Ham Pasta were just so delicious! These are must try in Slovakian cuisine! Do not miss it. And yes, you must visit Meštiansky pivovar, one of the ultra famous Slovak restaurent! We just cannot get rid of that place from our mind!
