There is plenty to see and do here. Bratislava's long history - as home to Celts, Romans, Germans, Hungarians and Jews. It has an impressive range of architecture, languages and cuisine.
Bratislava was once one of the most important centres of Jewish learning in Europe. A unique memorial to its most renowned rabbi, the Chatam Sofer, and the city's Museum of Jewish Culture celebrate this heritage.
The Danube River itself is the city's main assets. There are several cafes along its banks, within walking distance of the centre. The 'UFO' itself contains an eponymous bar high above the river. The pedestrian decks of the New and Old Bridges are good places to watch the river traffic, including huge Danube barges sailed past. Visitors can take the daily hydrofoil services lwhich links up the city with Vienna.
