| Second smallest building in Europe at only 150 cm (51 in)! |
On our way from Vienna to Budapest, we made a lunch and tour stop in Bratislavia, Slovakia. The old town has a small town feel with it's monuments and buildings. The two most interesting buildings were the
second narrowest building in Europe, which houses a kebab shop. It is only 130 cm (51 inches) wide!

| On the left side of the window is the cannonball shot by Napoleon in 1809 |
The second interesting building is a the
Town Hall, in which one a cannonball is still lodged. Our tour manager told us that it was because the Bratislavans didn't buy Napoleon a birthday present. However, wikipedia seems to suggest otherwise.

| Leftover monument of Russia liberating Bratislava in 1945 |
We had a lovely lunch in an old hospital turned restaurant. Then, we visited a monument left over from the Communist regime depicting the liberation of Bratislava at the end of WWII.

| Flower boxes and posts for former benches |
Finally, we headed back to the bus station to wait for our increasingly late train. Along the road up to the train station, there were brightly painted cement flower boxes. In between were posts for benches. However, there were no benches.
