Top 10 Romantic Places in Bratislava
1. Bratislava Castle
Bratislava castle is one of the most dominant features of the town. It offers a spectacular view on the city, but also an opportunity to enjoy a romantic sunset with your special someone. You can get there by walking along Zámocka Street, where you can later stop by for an evening cup of coffee in the cozy Old-Town-atmosphere.
2. Janko Kráľ Park
This park, located in Petržalka borough, offers plenty of greenery, which keeps the place cool even during the hottest summers. From there, it is only a stone’s throw away to Magio beach, lying along the Danube riverside, where you can enjoy relax or various sports activities. Or perhaps Aupark Shopping Center, if you or your partner feel like going on a shopping spree.
3. UFO restaurant and observation tower
A unique observation tower and a luxury restaurant UFO, situated on top of the SNP bridge pylon, right above the river Danube, is a perfect place for a couple to enjoy a romantic evening. Whether you decide to observe from within the restaurant, or from the very top of it, prepare for an up to 100 km distant view.
4. Dunajský pivovar (Danube Brewery)

5. Danubiana Museum
If you are fond of modern art, Danubiana Maulensteen Art Museum is definitely a must-see.
