Bradt Travel Guide Slovakia

Slovakia is one of the last of Central Europe's secrets to be discovered by travelers, and having joined the European Union in 2004, is now in a better position than ever to show what it has to offer. Impressively situated on the Danube, the capital, Bratislava, boasts stunningly restored baroque, rococo, and art nouveau buildings. Beyond the capital visitors will find a country packed with architectural gems, the renowned wooden churches of the Presov region, imposing fortresses, romantic castles, and medieval ruins--all within easy reach thanks to an excellent transportation system.

Covers: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Kaliningrad, Poland, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovenia, Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro, and Bosnia & Herzegovina.

The wildlife of central and eastern Europe is one of the unexpected attractions of a region best known for its cultural assets – the Baltic states have vast wet forests and peatbogs; Poland, Slovakia and Bulgaria have Europe's largest remnants of virgin forest; Hungary has the grasslands of the Great Plain; while Romania has the incredible Danube Delta and Croatia boasts the most fantastic archipelago in all the Mediterranean. This new visitor's guide provides a colorful introduction to the mammals, birds, reptiles, butterflies and other wildlife for which the area is renowned, together with an insight into their habits and habitats and an indication of where they are likely to be seen. Accessible and beautifully illustrated, the guide will appeal both to the holidaymaker and to the serious naturalist seeking a compact volume to carry around. And after the trip, it will make a great souvenir.

Bradt Travel Guide Bratislava

One of the great Baroque cities of central Europe, Bratislava sits at the strategic meeting point of three countries - Slovakia, Austria and Hungary. This city guide to Slovakia’s hitherto almost unknown capital gives full details on where to stay and eat plus a whole range of outdoor activities including cycling, rafting and hiking. Explore the car-free center; soak up the buzz of sidewalk cafés and tree-lined squares or visit stunningly restored Baroque and Rococo buildings. Further afield, sample some of Slovakia's internationally recognised wine in the cellars along the Small Carpathian Wine Route. A relative newcomer to the tourist scene, Bratislava is still very much a peaceful and pleasant place to explore.
