But you will really come to cherish this city if you enjoy discovering exciting tourist attractions that are considered hidden gems. To give you a head start, check out some of the best ones below. 

Devin Castle

While not being a hidden gem per se, Devin Castle often gets overlooked by tourists because it isn’t actually situated on the outskirts of the city.

Calvary Hill

Situated above the main railway station in Bratislava, this place is easy to miss. However, once you find it, you will be amazed by it. The place is home to several monuments, including a calvary, while also offering a spectacular panoramic view of Bratislava.
