Why travel to Slovakia?

Slovakia is a landlocked country in Central/Eastern Europe bordered to the north by Poland and the Czech Republic, to the east by Ukraine, to the south by Hungary, and to the west by Austria. Slovak is the countrys only official language, and its population of 5.4 million people speaks it.

Slovakia is a relatively new country that is frequently confused with Slovenia. It gained independence from Czechoslovakia in 1993. Today, Bratislava, the countrys capital and only a few hours drive from both Vienna and Prague, has established itself as a less touristy alternative to its more famous neighbours. The capital, which is located on the Danubes banks, has a vibrant nightlife scene as well as ancient buildings, such as Bratislava Castle, which overlooks the river and affords spectacular views of the city. Visitors to Bratislava can sample traditional Slovakian fare such as cheese and potato dumplings. Visitors can tour one of Europes most picturesque towns, Vlkolinec, which houses the continents largest cluster of traditional central European log cabins and is one of Slovakias seven UNESCO Heritage Sites, just outside the city.

For more contemporary art, Medzilaborce has the worlds second largest collection of Andy Warhol paintings, whose parents came from Slovakia to the United States. Visitors can walk the Tatras mountain range, which forms a natural barrier between Slovakia and Poland and offers magnificent paths along virgin meadows, in this hilly nation of waterfalls and lakes. In the winter, take advantage of Slovakias fast growing skiing sector, which provides an uncrowded, low-cost alternative to Austrias more pricey slopes.

Slovakia joined the Schengen area in 2007 after signing the Schengen Agreement in 2003.
