Slovakia has so much to offer and its history and UNESCO sites make it a special country to travel to. In this tour we will see a lot of impressive places. Starting from the Kalvaria near Banska Stiavnica, the most important baroque ordeal in Slovakia and in the entire former Kingdom of Hungary, probably even in all of Europe. This Calvary is a complex of 3 churches and 22 chapels with beautiful pictorial decorations, furnished with wooden furniture and blacksmithing and painted wooden reliefs. Banska Stiavnica is an UNESCO World Heritage Site, and one of the most interesting places in the country, with a large monumental complex of buildings, being famous for mining in the past.
The High Tatras National Park, an impressive mountain range, serves as a natural border between Poland and Slovakia. They are the best-known natural attraction in the country. More than 25 peaks exceed 2,500 meters in height, in a massif that is barely 25 km wide and 78 km long, but which condenses landscapes with alpine lakes, waterfalls and gorges.
Spis Castle is one of the most notable castles in Slovakia. Originally from the 12th century, it acquired more and more rooms and size over time. It was declared a World Heritage Site in 1993. It is in ruins, but it is one of the largest and most unknown castles in Central Europe. Alternatively, you can visit Kezmarok Stave Church, an UNESCO World Heritage Site.The city of Levoca, was included in the World Heritage Site in 2009. Among its monuments are the Church of St. James, the Town Hall, the House of Thurzo and the Kosice Gate.
