Castles on every rock, wooden churches, mining towns of silver and gold, and the High Tatras.
Slovakia is a small mountain country on the Danube, with more castles and castle ruins per person than almost anywhere in Europe. For centuries Bratislava was the coronation city of the kings of Hungary, and the mining towns of the hills made Europe rich with silver and gold. See Slovak art at the National Gallery, the giant Gothic altar of Levoča and the Andy Warhol museum near his parents' village.
