Kde je...? #5
Posted by Margarete on 08 December 2008
I didn’t take this picture. It’s definitely a lot older than I am. I don’t know when it was taken but I like seeing photos of places that have changed over the years.
Where is this?
Note: The photo has a watermark of IMHD across it, which is a public transportation company in Slovakia. I don’t understand the connection between the two, but there you have it.

Yes, for those of us who live in Bratislava this is an easy one. I was just there Friday night. I'll let someone else guess... But is a very nice picture.

Yep, that's right. That's Hlavné námestie - Main Square, also called Roland Square, in Old Town Bratislava. It's the site of the annual Christmas market and in the blog post I wrote on the Christmas market you can clearly see the similarities in the architecture and skyline in the pictures posted in each.

actually,you had a chance to see it ( if you are 20+ yrs old :-). They changed the square into the current state in early 90s. Www.Imhd.sk is an independent website writing about public transport in BA.

My husband used to work in that building . . . above the Cafe Roland. The chocolate shop next door is THE place to sit and look out over the square. Sigh. I can't believe I am saying this, but I miss it.
