It is one of the best preserved castles of the period.

The story 📖
Today was a road trip day since my feet still hurt from all the walking in flip-flops on the cobblestones seen everywhere in Prague! So, I made a quick visit to a gate of Hell and “Bratislava”, one of the filming locations of EuroTrip!
