District of Komárno
Komárno District lies along the Danube on Slovakia’s southern plain, where open farmland is interspersed with orchards, gardens and compact villages. Its administrative centre, Komárno, stands at the confluence of the Danube and Váh, opposite the Hungarian town of Komárom. The two places were one town until the post-First World War border settlement divided them. Komárno’s extensive fortification system recalls its strategic position on the Habsburg frontier, while its streets and public life reflect the Slovak-Hungarian character of this borderland. Away from the riverside town, the district is defined by agricultural settlements, fruit-growing plots and the level expanses of the Danubian Lowland.

Slovakia is best known internationally for the High Tatras, whose granite summits form the country’s most celebrated mountain landscape. Gerlachovský štít, at 2,655 metres, is the highest peak in Slovakia and in the Carpathians. The Danube runs past Bratislava, where Bratislava Castle stands on a hill above the river, linking the capital to Central Europe’s major waterway. Beyond the cities, forests, karst terrain and small historic towns define much of the country. Slovakia’s long folk tradition is also represented by the fujara, a large shepherd’s flute recognised by UNESCO.
