Europe, a diverse continent full of fascinating destinations, is famous for its rich culture and history. One of the outstanding destinations that is not too crowded with tourists is Slovakia - a gem located right in the heart of Europe.
This small country is characterized by vast mountain ranges, small towns and classic cities. Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities such as climbing, hiking, sightseeing, cycling, or even skiing, depending on their interests and desire to explore.
Luong An (35 years old) is currently living and working in Slovakia. Sharing with Travellive reporter, he said: “Every season in Slovakia brings me special emotions. Summer is cool, and autumn and winter are very cold. The autumn days are beautiful, if you go up to the mountains it is even more beautiful.”
As a country that packs in fascinating terrain, deep history and a distinct culture, it doesn't take a long trip to see why this country has more to offer than you ever thought possible.
Ideal time to travel to Slovakia
Slovakia's climate is divided into four distinct seasons, opening up many opportunities for tourists to explore the diversity of this country. However, as Mr. Luong An shared, the most ideal months to explore Slovakia are usually in spring (May, June) and autumn (September, October). During this period, the weather in Slovakia is usually stable, not too hot or cold, creating favorable conditions for traveling and enjoying the natural beauty.

Spring and autumn are also the time for festivals and cultural activities. Visitors will be able to participate in unique experiences and immerse themselves in the bustling atmosphere with the locals. If you are a fan of winter sports, Slovakia is also full of exciting opportunities. From December to March, the hills are covered in snow, so this is the ideal time to try skiing activities.

The country has nothing but beautiful scenery.
When arriving in Slovakia, visitors will start their journey by exploring the splendid old town of Bratislava. The fortresses with war relics or castles like witnesses of time here will be impressive destinations for history lovers. However, for tourists who want to experience outdoor adventures, the High Tatras mountain range in the far north is a destination not to be missed.
"Having lived here for a while, perhaps autumn is quite special in my heart. I often wander around the streets taking random photos, the gentle sunlight covering the city creates beautiful light for the photos," said Mr. Luong An. In addition, he also emphasized that visitors to Slovakia should not miss the nature reserves, because the trees and scenery here are as attractive as a movie.
