It is called Slovak route 66. It's because it is surrounded by great landscape, but for me also because its history... . Just few centuries ago, it was well known for iron ore, magnesite, copper ore, bronze... you name it.. in these villages and small towns electricity was sooner than in Kosice. Cultural life was on rise... . Suddenly, natural wealth was all mined, job opportunities quickly dissapeared, and so the people. . Nowadays we call these parts of Slovakia - the hunger valleys. . Fact that these parts of Slovakia were once the origin of 40% of worlds copper did not help.. . #slovakia #slovensko #klenovec #rudohorie #ciernediery #hladovadolina #podpolanie #ruraleurope #vidiek #lazy #tomaslacikaphotography #slovakphotographer #roadtrip #naturalbeauty #hiking #hikinglocations #copper #aluminium #magnesite #famouslocation #rural #kosice #tisovec #kokavanadrimavicou #mining #mininghistory #mine #bane #forgottenplaces .
