3. Bratislava, Slovakia
Eastern European cities often combine centuries of rich history with major modern developments, with just a sprinkle of left-over communist-designed buildings to keep you reminded of the region’s late 20th-century history. Unfortunately, Bratislava is a bit thin on medieval castles. Also, there aren’t any major modern developments. Rows upon rows of gray apartment blocks? Yep, there are plenty of those. You find those boring? Well, the joke is on you, buddy. What are you doing in Bratislava anyway? Prague and Vienna are less than an hour away, genius.
