UNESCO inscribed Bardejov's town centre in 2000, and it is not difficult to see why on arrival. The rectangular main square is lined almost end to end with Gothic and Renaissance burgher houses, their coloured facades unbroken by any obviously modern intrusion, a rarity even among Slovakia's better-preserved historic towns.
Bardejovske Kupele, a spa settlement a short drive outside town, adds a second reason to stop: wooden spa buildings dating back generations, still operating around mineral springs that have drawn visitors since long before the current infrastructure was built. The wider region also holds several of the wooden churches recognised under a separate UNESCO listing, giving coach itineraries a natural pairing of stone-built old town and timber ecclesiastical architecture within a short radius.
