The centre
I have been to some places around Europe before but have never seen anything like that. Zilina's architecture was unique! Actually later on I figured out all the Slovakian cities & towns have the same centres - just like this one here.

Hi!
I would like to ask about the best way to get to Terchova from Zilina by bus at early mornig.
We would travel in two groups: on 23 september and 25 september, and we would arrive at Zilina railway station both days something about 3:00 AM.
Could You tell me where can I find bus timetables, how to get to the bus stop, and where can I find warm place to wait till bus arrives?
Thanks!
To find various types of transportation use czech site:
http://jizdnirady.idnes.cz
on that site there are also slovak timetables, and the site has also english and german version...
the same but slovak is
http://cp.atlas.sk
however it is just in slovak language:)

when you come to Zilina...
I would wait in the trainstation, there should be some waiting room. Bus station is very close to the train. I think anyone can show you the way there.
23.9. Žilina,AS MHD to Terchová, first bus leaves isle 10, at 6:15am, arrives terchova at 7:00.
25.9. Žilina,,AS MHD to Terchová, first direct bus at 5:45 arrives at 6:20am, isle 10 again.
good luck to you. and enjoy Slovakia.

Zilina is a pleasant little town in the middle of nowhere (before getting transferred here,
I used to be living in Paris, please bear with me).
Its main "feature" is that the aforementioned "nowhere" happens to be great mountain scenery,
the surroundings are really great !
The city center is quite nice with two main squares and pedestrian area.
Lots of small shops, even more bars, cafes with really fine open air terraces in the summer at Marianske Namestie.
Nothing beats taking a beer or any other drink in the end afternoon over there.
However, being on the "east" side of Europe, the sun sets pretty soon, maybe surprising for people from western Europe (especially Spanish !) who are used to sunlight till late in the evening.
Zilina is not a favorite town. To be honest, I would not return here. If someone can convince me otherwise, I am more than willing to listen. A bit later I will try to explain why this town left me cold.
However, there are many great places to visit from Zilina. Please see travelogues under my photo on the right.

A: "its name is Zilina (it reads like zhilina). Officially: zeleznicna stanica Zilina (ŽELEZNIČNÁ STANICA ŽILINA - if this web site can reads the letters, hmmm)."
