5 days in Nitra Itinerary

Nitra is a city in western Slovakia, situated at the foot of Zobor Mountain in the valley of the river Nitra. You'll discover tucked-away gems like Cathedral of St. Emeran and Black Death Column. Step out of the city life by going to Topolcianky Bison Park and Ski Resort Tale. Venture out of the city with trips to Arboretum Borova Hora (in Zvolen), Kremnica (NBS - Museum of Coins and Medals & Mining Museum Andrej Adit, Kremnica) and Banska Bystrica (The Town Castle Area & Stredoslovenska Galeria). There's much more to do: admire the landmark architecture of Synagoga, contemplate in the serene atmosphere at Church of St. Ladislav, take in the dramatic scenery at Lucky Waterfall, and pause for some serene contemplation at Farsky kostol navstivenia Panny Marie.
