Slovakia Essentials

Slovakia’s landscape is defined by the High Tatras’ granite peaks, including the accessible Lomnický Peak and the glacial Štrbské pleso. The country’s history is anchored by the massive Spiš Castle ruins and the preserved folk architecture of Vlkolínec. Architectural landmarks range from Košice’s Gothic Saint Elisabeth Cathedral to Bratislava’s Art Nouveau Blue Church and the modern UFO Bridge. Natural wonders include the ladders of Suchá Belá gorge and the permanent ice formations in Dobšinská Ice Cave, while Levoča houses the world's tallest wooden altar.
