SK, Bratislava - Hluboka Road and Horsky Park
Hluboka Road contains many interesting place woth visiting, even though you usually dont find it in travel books. You can visit not only the Lurdska cave which is very close to Calvary in Bratislava. At the first glimpse you can see tables with thanksgiving to the Virgin Mary. The place rather resembles the oldest sanctuary in Slovakia - Marianka. Also it resembles very interesting church of the Virgin Mary of Snow. Unfortunately, its original 50-meter tower was demolished in the totalitarian past. The Hluboka Road, today protected zone, was built in a rocky hollow way in 1870. It served as an entrance road to Horsky Park. The park was created after adjustments to the existing forest. Even today it resembels a small forest rather than a park in the city.
