Tatralandia

Since summer is coming i think that a few articles about sea and lakes and aquaparks. One of the most beautiful aquapark in Slovakia is the Tatralandia in Liptovsky Mikulas. It is called like this because it is located in the hearth of the Tatra mountains. You can get to Liptovsky Mikulas with the train from Bratislava, it takes around 4 hours. Then from the small city you take a taxi to the Aquapark. Tatralandia is not only an Aquapark but a whole resort with the aquapark, hotel, restaurant and small wooden houses or apartments where the tourists are accommodated. The houses are equipped with kitchens and fridges so you can cook for yourselves. However the one thing missing there is a shop or some simple fast-food or small restaurants. In case you don't have a car it is difficult for you to shop and cook. You need a taxi to go to the city.

Devin or the little village in the suburbs of Bratislava is one of the most favorite weekend attraction for the people living in Bratislava. It is a place where you can go to walk, roller skate, ride the bike or simply to enjoy the quiet and sun outside the city. Devin lies exactly at the border between Austria and Slovakia and it is famous for the archeological site of the Devin Castle which is open to public.We usually get to Devin with the bus from the city center and the road is pretty long, around half hour, but the trip is worth it. The end station in Devin is a big square from where you can already see the ruins of the Devin castle. In the square there is a large and beautiful hotel, many wooden shops with food and souvenirs and many street sellers with balloons and children's toys.
