Reviewed By smallhausen1 - Bratislava, Slovakia
This area belongs to the Catholic seminar and seems almost ideal for this purpose. It is surrounded by city walls, having Gothic cathedral just in the middle. Pros: - tranquility of this place - quite unique interior of the cathedral, preserved in excellent condition - knowledgeable tourist guide ready to reply any question Cons: - not easy access - exterior of the cathedral which is far from finalizing of the reconstruction
