Hviezdoslav Square

Between the Old Bridge and the Slovak National Theater sits the vibrant Hviezdoslav Square in Bratislava, Slovakia's stunning historic city.

It was named after Pavol Országh Hviezdoslav, an ancient renowned poet who flourished from 1002 to 1030 AD. The square is a public space that is ideal for sightseeing and relaxing, as well as a popular gathering spot in the city.

The Hviezdoslav Square is next to an open-air music theater, the Slovak Philharmonic, and the ancient Opera House, which are the town's main music venues, so you'll almost certainly be greeted with music.

Hviezdoslav Square is close to a number of restaurants and high-end shops, where you can eat or shop before or after your tour of the square. During the month of December, festive Christmas markets adorn the square of the landmark, making it an unforgettable winter tourist destination.
