Around the Royal Observatory, 

Austria 's easternmost summit 

there is a small hiking paradise has developed , 

which enjoys increasing popularity .

Information boards tell 

of the turbulent past of the small mountain, 

which belongs geologically to 

 the Carpathian Mountains.

The Pannonian climate influenced by the plant 

and animal world has many rarities.

In particular, the observation tower

it offers a unique panoramic 

view to the Neusiedler See, 

in the lowlands almost to Vienna and

The Church of the Assumption of Virgin Mary, also known as the Blumental Church, is a Roman Catholic church located in the broader old town centre of Bratislava, on the corner of the Florian square and the Blumental Street. It was built in the years 1885 - 1888 in neo-Romanesque style

The furniture inside dates back to the 19th century, apart from the pews brought here from Saint Martin's Cathedral. Visitors should take a closer look at a copy of a painting brought into the city by a merchant in 1770 and a crucifix made by a local sculptor Fadrusz.

In front of the church, a sculpture of Saint Florian is situated overlooking the square.

Another small lake in my area, 

another sunny day,

I could smell a springtime here...

Strkovec is an artificial lake 

in the Ružinov district of Bratislava... 

The lake is named after 

the Slovak word for "gravel" which was 

mined from this space before 

is filled with water and became a lake.

The lake is between 2,5 - 8 meters deep

Today the lake and surrounding serve 

as a leisure space and sports

facility for the neighborhood

HAPPY  VALENTINE'S  DAY

Today I visited a Manour-house

The Art - Hotel Kastiel in Tomašov 
some 250 years ago 

was a country aristocratic seat 

which Baron Ján Jesenák had built 

in the years 1766-1769 

in the style of Classicized Austrian baroque.

 Hotel is located very close to Bratislava 

and has beautiful and very well maintained

garden. 

Perfect location for a wedding

with many different rooms / salons as well as 

"chapel" for the wedding ceremony.

or another events...

In its time it was one of the first, if not the first,

English nature-landscape parks on the territory 

of the Hungarian kingdom. 

Its shape is still visible today in the

 remnants of alleys

 and snaking paths leading to 

green nooks and crannies.

In the 18th century it was supplemented with 

stone sculptures, garden pavilions, 

a greenhouse and different other attractions.

It’s not unusual to run across in the park free-

ranging pheasants and rabbits, 

and sometimes even foxes roam through here.
