I HAD SOME FREE TOUR TICKETS TO ENTER THE BOJNICE CASTLE. SO I DID!
A panoramic view showing revitalized park with benches at the location of the castle of Bojnice, as seen from the eastern side. This castle is probably the best known national cultural heritage of Slovak republic. It is a Romantic building with original Gothic and Renaissance elements dating back to the 12th century.
I have taken this photo at the beginning of this year, when I had some free Christmas/New Year's tour tickets to enter thematic expositions of the castle, so I was really looking forward to tour it during the wintertime. Perhaps somewhat naively, I was hoping to take some winter photos there, showing the castle of Bojnice with tons of snow around it; at least that's how I imagined it. However, the Mother Nature wanted it differently and there was no snow at all at the time of my visit. But of course, I liked my tour anyway and I took a lot of photos there; through they don't look much as if they were taken in cold January.
Anyway, this castle offers endless attractions for tourists during all seasons of the year, this includes museums, night tours, festivals, thematic expositions, theatrical performances and much more! All of these attractions make the castle of Bojnice one of the most visited castles in Slovakia. It receives hundreds of thousands of visitors every year! As I said, no matter which time of year it is - spring, summer, autumn, or winter; this magnificent castle is visited during all seasons by tourists from all over the world.
As you already can imagine, the castle of Bojnice is also a popular location for filming fantasy and fairy-tale movies. Would you be able to name some of those movies which were filmed in this castle? You can share your guesses with everyone in your comments under this post.
If you happen to be in Slovakia the Bojnice castle is a must-see cultural heritage! This location has so much to offer, both for regular tourists looking for museum exhibitions, medieval performances or various art exhibitions, as well as for photographers looking for some picturesque historical sceneries and romantic time! :o
I am an enthusiast photographer walking my own path in stock photography genre. Taking photos of landscapes, natural sceneries and animals is what I prefer to do at my spare time. Architecture and cultural heritage pictures such as pictures of castles, historical towns or outdoor museums are my passion too. Although I still feel as an hobbyist photographer, I successfully sell my photos trough world's leading stock photography agencies for years anyway. The commercial success of my photography works was, and still is, really an interesting experience for me since the beginning.

Ďakujem +Alenka Šulíková! Ja som v ten sneh pevne dúfal, lebo zatiaľ vôbec nemám vo svojom archíve fotografiu Bojnického zámku, ktorý by bol obklopený zimnou perinou. Ale nevadí, snáď sa to ešte niekedy podarí. :)

For a January it looks good outside. I don't have a guess today, but it does look familiar.

It is more than pretty, the round Little Plaza in Front of the picture gives me the Impression of a round dining room Table , this taken away any corners? and leaves the rest smothe a wholesomeness, wanting me to visit this place,

K mnohým fotkám by bolo čo povedať, ale väčšinou ich máte v rámci nejakej komunity, kde sa komentovať nedá. Máte to Slovensko pekne prejdené a zachytené na fotografiách. Je radosť pozerať sa na vaše fotky.

Ďakujem +Daniela Augustka Blah! Kedysi, keď som tu začínal, tak som prispieval do komunít. Teraz však už do komunít neprispievam, pretože som zistil, že také fotografie síce získavajú návštevnosť, avšak hlavne len v rámci komunity a strácajú ju v celkovom vyhľadávaní na Google+, čo je v konečnom dôsledku nevýhodné. Nehovoriac o tom, ako ste aj spomenuli, že fotografie, ktoré patria do komunity nemôžu komentovať ľudia, ktorí nie sú jej členom.
