Jesuit Church (Juzuitsky kostol) in the Main Square, Bratislava. The building to the right is the Bratislava Museum.

Looking roughly north east from the Castle. St Nicolaus Church is in the foreground. The dull square building in the distance is the Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications and the high tower behind the trees is the Bank of Slovakia. In the far distance can be seen the high-rise apartments where people live. Beyond them is Malé Karpaty - the 'Little Carpathians'. These are a low mountain range about 100 km long forming part of the Carpathian Mountains.
