Bojnice Castle & Zoo
Bojnice zámok is by far the prettiest castle in Slovakia. The grand fortress's baby-blue spires and beautiful castle grounds attract nearly half a million visitors from around the world each year. Many come for its various festivals, including the annual Ghosts and Spirits Festival held each May. In the summer months, a series of classical music concerts are held in Hunadyho Hall. Christmas at the Castle is a month-long celebration with re-enactments of the birth of Jesus and live musical performances. But Bojnice needs no festivals to make it worth a visit. Simply walking around the castle grounds, tossing bread crumbs to the swans in the moat, touring the vast and intricate interior, or visiting the nearby zoo makes for a wonderful trip. In short, Bojnice is breath-taking.
