There you have to change to a bus that goes to Prievidza.

If you go to Slovakia I ask you to be respectful and friendly to the local people. Don&#8217;t fly around with your drone and make noise when there are people. When I go somewhere I am kind of an ambassador of my country. I also promote sustainable tourism, i.e. not staying in huge hotels (&#8220;Hotelburgen&#8221;) that destroy the landscape and the place for the locals. Having said that Bojnice is far from being there and for example having tours only in Slovak is for me a hint that Slovak people want to keep it that way. Thank you!<\/p>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>Bojnice castle is one of the most beautiful castles in the world and the most beautiful castle of Slovakia. It looks like right out of a Disney movie.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bernhardherzog.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/DJI_0155.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-15000\" src=\"http:\/\/bernhardherzog.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/DJI_0155-1024x767.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"393\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bernhardherzog.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/DJI_0155-1024x767.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bernhardherzog.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/DJI_0155-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bernhardherzog.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/DJI_0155-768x575.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bernhardherzog.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/DJI_0155-1536x1151.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/bernhardherzog.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/DJI_0155.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 525px) 100vw, 525px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I can highly recommend going there. <strong><span style=\"color: red\">What do you think about the castle and town?
