Slovakia, formerly with Czechoslovakia has carved a niche with its rich culture and traditions on the world map. The High Tatras with snow atop all summer, waterfalls along the stark rock walls and green glacial valleys lure adventure travellers for hiking or skiing, which is challenging and scenic.
The traditional Slovak folk music, dance and festivals will give you a glimpse of Slovakian culture. The medieval towns of Spis region, 18th century wood churches, capital city with picturesque streets are definitely worth a see.
