My travels

One of the most beautiful things to do in Bratislava is to have a nice walk around the Danube bank. Danube is one of the largest rivers in Europe and on eof the most famous. It passes Slovakia for a very short way howevwer it is the symbol of the city Bratislava. It flows through the middle of the city and it has 5 beautiful bridges.
