Spend 3 hours wandering through the fairy-tale Bratislava, visiting 6 major attractions, amazing!

🇸🇰 Since the 'Velvet Revolution' in Czechoslovakia, the Czech Republic and Slovakia have become two independent sovereign states. Therefore, traveling to Eastern Europe, visiting Slovakia, known as the 'Land of Castles', is a must. 🇪🇺 Slovakia is a landlocked country in Europe, known as the 'Heart of Europe'. Its capital, Bratislava, is low-key, exquisite, and beautiful. Strolling around the city, enjoying the shade under the sun and the tranquility of the streets, feels especially warm, comfortable, and cheerful! ⛳ Spend 3 hours in the afternoon, visiting these 6 main attractions is very easy and nice! 1⃣️ Bratislava Castle: It is the landmark building of the city, standing on a small hill on the west side of the old town by the Danube River. During the Turkish occupation of Budapest, it was the refuge of the Hungarian royal family. The castle is a square building with four corner towers, with red tiles and white walls, which is particularly pleasing to the eye. The viewing platform on the perimeter offers an excellent view, overlooking the Danube River and the entire city. Opening hours: 10:00-17:00 Bus: Take bus 203, 207, 516 to Zámocká station and walk there. 2️⃣ Bratislava Old Town: The ancient buildings here are well preserved, with the original appearance of a medieval city. Most of the houses are Baroque-style buildings. Walking on the cobblestone streets of the old town is like traveling back to the Middle Ages. It's nice to eat an ice cream at the century-old LUCULUS ICE SALOON, 2.5 euros per scoop. Of course, there are many other shops, such as small goods, coffee shops, gourmet shops, and so on. Opening hours: All day 3⃣️ 'Watcher' Sculpture: Located at the intersection of Panska and Rybarska in the old town, it shows the unique sense of humor of the city's residents. Walking through the streets, you will also see other sculptures that will make you smile. 4⃣️ Roland Fountain and Town Hall Clock Tower: The Roland Fountain on the main square is an ancient fountain with a history of over 800 years, with Baroque-style sculptures that are nice to watch. It is also an important geographical landmark, and it is said that you haven't really visited Bratislava unless you take a photo with it. The old town hall of Bratislava with its iconic clock tower is a beautiful building that can be seen from the entire city. 5⃣️ St. Elizabeth's Church: It is a Catholic church built in 1907, known as the Blue Church because of the extensive use of blue in its exterior and interior. The blue and white colors are very dreamy and cute. Opening hours: Monday to Saturday 07:00-07:30, 17:30-19:00; Sunday 7:30-12:00, 17:30-19:00; Transport: Take the tram lines 1, 4, 9, 10, 11, 14, 17 to Kamenné nám station and walk there. 6⃣️ UFO Observation Deck: Built on the SNP Bridge, spanning the Danube River, it is an ultra-modern building with a sense of the future, which is also the source of its name. It is recommended to view its exterior from the Bratislava Castle viewing platform. 📌 These attractions, except for Bratislava Castle, are all near the Bratislava Old Town and can be reached on foot.
