Although the piece here focuses
on much more than just Bratislava, Slovakia’s capital city, it is
apparent by the place’s growing popularity among Americans that Slovakia is the new Prague. Prague, which has come into
its own as a truly modern European city, is now so modern that it carries the higher price tag of other major European
cities. Not that it’s London, but Americans heading to Prague aren’t going to find the easy $15 a day deal they used
to.
Not so for Slovakia, where Americans and Europeans are now flocking for its delightful mix of old European culture and
softer impact on their wallets.
