BRATISLAVA REGION<br />
WATER & WINE, HISTORY & SUN<br />
Bratislava Region is the smallest region in Slovakia in terms<br />
of size, but the variety of remarkable places makes it one<br />
of the most interesting ones! The region is rich in aesthetic<br />
natural landscapes and important monuments. There are<br />
outstanding viewpoints, beautiful forests, bike paths along<br />
the <strong>Danube</strong>, interesting geological sites and impressive historical<br />
and sacred sites. Bratislava Region has its very own<br />
little hotspots, where the region can be experienced to its<br />
fullest.<br />
Záhorie, which lies west of the capital, is a natural paradise<br />
in which pine forests dominate. The little Carpathians (north<br />
of the capital) are decorated by vineyards. Here you can<br />
experience folk tradition up close and good wine as well<br />
as excellent food. Senec, east of Bratislava, is known for its<br />
clean lakes. Podunajsko (<strong>Danube</strong> area) is mainly associated<br />
with the <strong>Danube</strong> and is characterized by water sports such as<br />
canoeing, sailing and rafting. Here you can find hot springs<br />
and outdoor swimming pools, which are open all year round.<br />
Finally, there is of course Bratislava, the metropolis, the gate<br />
to the region, with its vibrant and lively happenings.<br />
