Less visited by tourists than its neighbor the Czech Republic, from which it was peacefully severed in 1993, Slovakia seduces its visitors with medieval villages and the dramatic High Tatry Mountains. Hurry up and plan your trip before Bratislava turns into the next Prague.
Instructions
1. Determine what time it is in Slovakia. Slovakia is 1 hour ahead of Greenwich Mean Time, which means it is 6 hours later in Slovakia than it is on the East Coast of the United States, and 9 hours later than it is on the West Coast.
2. Keep in mind that the Slovak language is similar to Czech, but differs in some respects. English is spoken widely, though not universally, as is German. If all else fails, try French, which is also studied by some Slovaks.
3. Dial 011, the international access code.
4. Dial 421, the Slovakian country code.
5. Dial the city code. Some city codes for major towns in Slovakia include 7 for Bratislava, 88 for Banska Bystrica and 95 for Kosice.
6. Dial the remaining digits.
