The city of Bratislava is the capital of Slovakia, and is also the political, cultural and economic centre of the country. While smaller than most capitals of Europe, Bratislava is a place that will let you experience many cultures all in one place, because the city has been influenced by various nations and religions, such as Austria, Hungary, Czechia, Germany, and of course Slovakia.

Bratislava is definitely an underrated city to visit in Europe, and you’ll be surprised at how much it has to offer!
