Slovakia 2022

In June 2022 we did an 18 day Danube River cruise which started in Romania and ended in Germany. Slovak Republic is a landlocked country in Central Europe. It is bordered by Poland to the north, Ukraine to the east, Hungary to the south, Austria to the southwest, and the Czech Republic to the northwest. Bratislava is the capital of Slovakia and its largest city. Our boat docked at the entrance to the old town which is a pedestrian-only area with a lot of 18th century buildings that have been converted to shops, cafes and bars. It has a small central square with some outdoor markets and several historically interesting buildings. In the morning it was raining so that dampened the walk and views a bit. We visited the St. Martin’s Cathedral which served as the coronation church of the Kingdom of Hungary between 1563 and 1830.
