You're standing at Devín Castle, on a cliff above the spot where the Morava flows into the Danube. Devín is now part of Bratislava. The cliff stands at an elevation of 212 metres, and you can see right away why there's been a fortress here for so long. From up here you could watch the trade route along the Danube, and a branch of the Amber Road too.
