Slovakia is a country of thousands of shapes. 
Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, is a city filled with old-world charm, mysterious architecture, and outside cafes. When walking through the streets of the old town, one will notice the ubiquitous cultural heritage brimming with unusual stories from the former communist-era along with modern architecture bringing Slovakia to the 21st century.
 Known for its underground beauty, Slovakia has a stunning and diverse underworld. There are over 2400 caves in Slovakia, and the new ones are being discovered constantly. Few spectacular caves worth seeing include Demänovská Cave or Dobšinská Ice Cave, listed in the UNESCO Heritage List. 

High Tatras, Slovakia´s tallest mountains.

Slovak nature will immediately win one over with its versatility. Large forests are full of life, majestic peaks, and deep valleys show unbelievable diversity in such a small area. Over 40% of Slovakia is covered with forest, making the land one of the most forested countries in Europe. The High Tatras are the country's tallest and the only complete alpine range. Still, they are considered to be the smallest mountains in the world.

The legacy of the ancestors is represented in folk architecture conservation areas and open-air museums, in particular Čičmany village. The village is recognized for its original log houses with the traditional pattern of white ornaments. Street after street is painted with folk art. 

As a country small in size, but huge in possibilities, Slovakia is unquestionably worth visiting.
