Bratislava Castle in Slovakia

Bratislava Castle in Bratislava, Slovakia

On a sunny spring day I took this photo of Bratislava Castle (Bratislavský hrad) on board of a hydrofoil craft cruising the Danube river. There are several companies passing the castle by boat. For the short distance between Vienna – Bratislava there is also a very modern boat, the Twin City Liner, available.

On the way back to the railway station of Bratislava I came across this nice lighted house. Does anyone know the name or meaning of it?

Loudspeaker in Bratislava

Loudspeaker in Bratislava, Slovakia

An interesting detail of Slovakia (and Czech Republic): There are more than usual loudspeakers in the streets. Not only in the main cities but also in the smaller ones. A kind of political information system? Which countries do you know where you can see many loudspeakers in the streets?

Interurban to Trenčianske Teplice

Interurban from Trenčianska Teplá to Trenčianske Teplice

On a sunny spring day I made a trip with this interurban from Trenčianska Teplá to the Slovakian spa Trenčianske Teplice. By the way I was pretty surprised to hear that the announcements on the train loudspeaker were not only made in Slovakian but also in English and even in German!
