    Gothic art and architecture from Slovakia is also extraordinary. They have also thematic trail called Gothic route on regions Spis and Gemer with many awesome medieval buildings. Medieval fresco paintings made by Italian masters, biggest collections of gothic altars and sculptures in the world etc. I really recommend this! I also like towns Komárno and Banská Štiavnica and primeval forests on the Slovak-Polish-Ukrainian border, thats something you cant find anywhere else in Europe anymore.

A lot of examples are the old medieval centers of the Slovakian cities. Slovakia by itself has a large and plentiful history for people that like to read about countries history, One of these examples is the Great Morava which was placed on the western part of Slovakia and southern part of Czech republic.

      But during the time I have realised, that my country Slovakia is one of the best countries for living. I have been visiting Germany, Austria qiute a lot, but now I don´t have feeling, that they are living much better.

Or visit small old villages in east with wooden churches and nature around.
