i wandered around the city with a map and enjoyed the sights.
the laughing gnome. hard to spot in the center of bratislava there´s a gnome with a big penis. The story tells that two men were competing for the love of a woman and they built one house each. The woman chose in the end and the winner put the statue as a reminder to other man that he won.
Davin Castle
Storage rooms in the outskirts of the city. Its pretty cool that they use them as rehearsal rooms and even for gigs! This is one of the many in the city.
The Building of Slovak radio is a building in Bratislava.It is shaped like an inverted pyramid. Architects of this project were Štefan Svetko, Štefan Ďurkovič and Barnabáš Kissling and it was completed in 1983. The building is 80 metres high and has a concert hall with a large concert organ. The first test broadcast was made in 1984 and regular broadcasting began on 27 March 1985(wikipedia)
The Church of St. Elisabeth (Slovak: Kostol svätej Alžbety, Hungarian: Szent Erzsébet templom), commonly known as Blue Church (Modrý kostolík, Kék templom), is a Hungarian Secessionist (Jugendstil) Catholic church located in the eastern part of the Old Town in Bratislava, Slovakia. It is consecrated to Elisabeth of Hungary, daughter of Andrew II, who grew up in the Pressburg Castle (pozsonyi vár). It is called "Blue Church" because of the colour of its façade, mosaics, majolicas and blue-glazed roof (wikipedia). It´s very pretty and to me it looks like a giant cake with fondant.
