2Bratislava, Slovakia
Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, is often overlooked, but it’s a perfect city for a 2-day visit. The old town is compact and easy to explore, with highlights including Bratislava Castle, perched on a hill with views of the Danube River, and St. Martin’s Cathedral, a Gothic masterpiece. Stroll through Michael’s Gate and explore the charming streets of the old town, dotted with cafes and quirky statues. For a bit of modern history, visit the UFO Observation Deck on the SNP Bridge for panoramic views of the city and the surrounding countryside.
