Even though it is separated by 60 km of Vienna, we notice great changes, it is seen that this country has some years to arrive at the level of the countries of the euro zone. Although just in a year and a half they will impose here, also the new coin.
Bratislava, a city made capital very few years ago, has a historic centre small and attractive, and flooded of tramways as all the Central European countries.
Among its plenty of churches, we find the blue church, which seems taken out of a tale.
The colorful buildings of the centre, contrast continuously with old constructions half demolished and in very bad conditions; and at the top of a near hill, there is a castle, centre of meetings of the president.
On the other side of Danube is the new part of the city, which is accessed for the modern New Bridge.
Respect to the people, the little contact that we have had, has been very good, from the day that we arrive they helped us a lot; and Tomas, the one who hosted us, is a very nice person; those beers in front of the Danube in the night.... are unforgettable.
We make use of a day, to go to the Castle of Devin, in a small town near the city, in the confluence of the Danube with the Morava, at the border with Austria.
The castle has survived from the New Stone Age until the 19th century, passing for numerous hands; even it fell in the hands of the troops of Napoleon.
To finish off, in this city that has liked us so much, Tomas invited us to a very tasty dinner of authentic Slovak food.
