October 2005 - Through Slovakia by car with photos from Bratislava and Zilina.
Bratislava | Highway E75 | Žilina
In Bratislava we were accommodated by a Hospitality Club member in a suburb of the city. Our host had several other backpackers there, too. We left quite early in the morning to see the city centre in the daylight.

Leaving Bratislava was difficult as we accidentally took the highway leading to Brno. To get to the E75 to Žilina we had to return to the centre. We lost some time and once again we were a bit in a hurry.

We arrived in Žilina in the afternoon. First it didn't look like a particularly beautiful city but as we had a small walk we found also a rather nice old town.
