Kosice is also a popular center of Higher Education presented mainly by University of Pavol Jozef Safarik, where the students can reach the degrees in medicine, in law… A generation ago almost everyone in Kosice could speak at least two languages, under the communist rules the languages were suppressed but nowadays there are again many foreign tutors from the USA, France, GB…in Kosice.
Unfortunately we have nno access by ocean or river but there are a plenty of other new private transport services today. By using them we can visit the famous Castle of Krasna Horka, the High Tatras, historical town Levoca or Spis.
Maybe it is hard to believe but in the 17th century Kosice were the same as New York City and in the beginning of 19th century Chicago and San Francisco were the villages. .
