Kremnica is a very nice and not very big town, which is not covered in crowds of tourists.Located in Kremnicke Vrchy has got some places worth visiting.
The first very special thing is a slanting market square covered in grass with a rich sculptured column.You can visit a museum of coins and medals- Kremnica used to be famous as a royal mint (funded in 1328 and working up to now).
There is also a castle with St. Catherine church (fabulous organs!)Fancy some outdoor activity?Thermal swimming pools are waiting for you!
Skiing in winter?Krahule(a few km north) provide quite good ski service. Leave a Comment Website: www.mint.sk Other Contact: www.uakom.sk/krem_uv.html

 There are many small
villages such as
Vlachovo. by lmkluque
The vacation traveler may not consider stopping in a place like Vlachovo, no matter how I present it. However, there are many people who have an interest in their genealogy and will want to travel to the recently opened Eastern European countries. In the past hundred years, or so, there have been many political boundry changes and many towns have changed their name making a search confusing and misleading. It is with those people in mind that I will build a Vlachovo page. Leave a Comment

A small town, not very popular with tourists which has been redecorated recently. Situated in north-east Slovakia by the side road No 77 into which you have to turn in Svidnik from road No 73 leading from Polish-Slovakian border crossing to Kosice. A beautiful market square with a magnificent XV th century church of St. Egid, very worth seeing because of several Reinessance altars inside.
From Bardejov you can make a short trip to famous spa in Bardejovske Kupele. Leave a Comment

Not very big city located in the heart of Stiavnicke Vrchy. Beautiful old centre but unfortunately only partly renovated so far.
Banska Stiavnica is very old-it was mentioned in 11th century for the first time , and for ages it was famous for its mines of gold and silver- in the upper part of the city there's a Museum of Mining. Now seems to be a bit sleepy, but very nice. To reach Banska Stiavnica one should turn right half way driving from Ziar nad Hronom to Zvolen. (road signs to Banska Stiavnica or Levice) Leave a Comment

The next building overlooking the town is a baroque Calvary on one of the hills surrounding the town. The chapels are being renovated; a very special is the monumental building on the top of the hill which looks like a large church. In fact there are only two towers and a small chapel between them.
