About
Bratislava
|
 |
 |
| |
Located
only 60 kilometres from Vienna,
the city can trace its history
to before the 10th century when
it became a border fortress of
the Hungarian kingdom. Bratislava
was originally known as Pressburg,
and played an important part in
the military history of the region.
The city centre has excellent
shopping with many specialist boutiques.
Around Hlavne nam, the main square
in the old quarter, are many historical
buildings and open-air cafes. The
Old Town offers a multitude of
restaurants, bars, and cafés,
offering all kinds of food from
modern to traditional Slovak cuisine.
Bratislava hrad (Bratislava Castle)
is situated on a plateau 270 feet
above the Danube, and a must see
for any new visitor to the city.
Although the current castle has
been destroyed and re-built several
times during its long history (most
recently between 1953 and 1962),
the site where the castle is located
has been occupied since the late
Stone Age. During the reign of
the Roman empire from the 1st to
5th centuries BC, it was a frontier
post. From the upper floor, there
are great views of the River Danube
as far as Austria and Hungary.
