Slavin cemetery
Slavin is located on the hill in Bratislava. Big cemetery of soviet soldiers from World War II. Amazing place to visit especially at night. Please visit with respect and dignity, do not shout, do not party, instead enjoy the place, the view, the moment.
Lomnicky peak, Tatra mountains
The second highest peak of whole Carpathian mountains is in High Tatras – Tatra Mountains in Slovakia. It’s name is Lomnicky peak. You do not need to climb there, instead you can go by cable car. so it is accessible also for disabled people. You imagine, tousands of kilometers around the highest peak (ok Gerlach is 20 m higher :), but is very hardly accessible) And as of cable car? Plan the trip in advance! And make sure you book it. As of weather – you never know whether you will be lucky or simply in the fog. But being in the fog so high is also great experience.
