Bratislava Riverfront

Bratislava Riverfront () is a riverfront on the river Danube located on the Old Town side of Bratislava, Slovakia. It extends from the Karloveská bay near the Lafranconi Bridge to the Port of Bratislava and Harbour Bridge. In the past, the riverfront included the Coronation Hill, where the newly crowned Kings of Hungary would recite an oath and make crosses with their sword in four cardinal directions to show their resolution to defend the country. The hill was demolished in 1870 when the shores of the Danube were strengthened. 
Bratislava Riverfront is a tourist attraction as well as a leisure area for the citizens of Bratislava.
Location and division.
The riverfront begins near the garden of the Bratislava Water Company in the Karlova Ves borough of Bratislava and runs along the Danube up to the Harbour Bridge. It is divided into four sections.
History.
In 2010, a new anti-flood wall was constructed along parts of the riverbank to protect Bratislava from periodic floods on the river Danube. At the same time, part of the riverbank from the New Bridge to the Passenger Port was reconstructed.
