10 Things to do in Bratislava, Slovakia Travel Guide Video Transcript:

We're visiting Bratislava, Slovakia and in this video we're going to show you guys 10 things to do in Bratislava. Let's get started.

Our first stop was Devin Castle, which is located in Devin, a borough of Bratislava. This is the one attraction we visited that was a little further from the Old Town - a 30-minute bus ride.

Devin Castle is a ruined castle that sits on Slovak territory at the confluence of the Danube and Morava rivers.

We ate at a restaurant called “Modra Hviezda” which is located at the base of Bratislava Castle and feels like a cave.

Bratislava Castle was Built in the 9th century and modified over the centuries many times over, this 4-towered castle sits perched on a hill overlooking the Danube River.

You get nice views over the Old Town, plus you have the Slovak National Museum & the Baroque Gardens on the north side of the palace.

The following day, we set out to explore the Old Town and stopping cafe for a decadent breakfast.

Bratislava’s Old Town is compact & easy to explore on foot and cover most of the sights in one day. We went on our own do-it-yourself tour finding all sorts of interesting statues & landmarks.

The Blue Church is located on Bezručova Street, which is about a 10-15 minute walk from the Old Town designed in the art nouveau style.

Locals in Bratislava like to say that the best view of their city is from the UFO Bridge because you can’t see the UFO bridge. You get amazing views of Bratislava during sunset.

And while you’re down by the Danube, you can either enjoy a stroll along the river, or go on a sightseeing cruise.

Prašná bašta is another cozy restaurant located at basement level and we had another wonderful meal.

For sports fans be sure to check out a HC Slovan Bratislava ice hockey game. They play in the KHL and the level of hockey and entertainment value is fantastic.

And that’s a wrap for our trip to Bratislava. While we can see the appeal of doing this as a day trip from Vienna, we loved having the extra time to really enjoy the city, try out some great restaurants, and make it to some of the further attractions like Devin Castle. If you have a few days to spare, this is a great little capital to visit.

Next month I'm going to do an Erasmus semester in Bratislava and I started looking at videos about touristic attractions and food, as I especially love to explore a country by its dishes, so I'll definitely try most of the meals you had and I'm really excited about the other beautiful places Bratislava and Slovakia generally offers! 😍
(P.S I'm a beer and wine drinker, so I have to try Slovak versions as well 😁)
