One place in Bratislava and one place outside
I would like to talk about one part of city. It is really nice. This place is located at city center of Bratislava. It is really nice garden. We don't go there wery often but when we do, it's really nice there and atmosphere there is really electric. There is one big enterance and matbe some other. This garden is near to some hospital, I think. I also think that it is nice. I think so, because there are some different sections and in every section is different atmosphere. This sections are divided whith natural walls and some plants.
