Enter Hlavna in the centre of Košice and you’ll notice some interesting structures below your feet. What could they be? Well, the title of this entry is a bit of a giveaway, as this is the Lower Gate of the city from back in the 13th century. This was the original gateway to the town and it remains an awe-inspiring sight today, as parts of the original set-up remain. These fortifications lay hidden for many years, only being discovered when Hlavna went under heavy reconstruction in 1996. The wine festival takes place here, and we can’t think of a better spot.
