Over the past ten years, more and more people have visited the countries to the east of the European Union, and believe it or not Slovakia has been rather popular. For example, Bratislava has been recognized as a great city, and is only 60 kilometers away from Vienna. Most people will be able to get to that area without a problem. Of course there is also a desire to see some of the lesser known parts of the country, making Levoca a prime place to visit.
Levoca has a relatively small population in that it is below 15,000. It is a historical area, and is almost like something you would see in a picture. It is 350 kilometers from Bratislava, and is the main part of so called the Gothic Route. There are also some national parks nearby, such as Slovak Paradise and High Tatras, which are great for tourists regardless of the time of year.
Levoca was recently recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site, and while it’s not the most popular vacation spot on Earth, everyone who has been there believes it deserves this recognition. Inside the town you will find that there are still six watch towers from the old world, and many of the buildings still have their original walls, which date back several hundred years.
