Bratislava Discovery: Old & New (from Vienna)

Meet global expats and internationally-minded locals at this open networking night in the heart of Bratislava, Slovakia, conveniently starting and ending at Vienna Main Station (Wien Hauptbahnhof).

After arriving in Bratislava by direct train, we first take a leisurely stroll through its medieval city center Staré Mesto, passing St. Michael's Gate, the 17th-century main square and revolutionary Hviezdoslavovo námestie. Obviously there's a shared history, so what kind of similarities and differences to Vienna will you come to notice in the Slovak capital?

But Bratislava is more than just its Old Town. After admiring the iconic Blue Church, we take in in wide angled views of the Zaha Hadid-designed Sky Park before having early dinner at Nivy Mall food court with plenty of local and international choices at your own taste and budget.

Full and satisfied, we then head over to the International Night Bratislava for networking, games and fun. Right after the event, we'll hop on our train back to Vienna, arriving shortly before midnight.
