Čičmany is a breath taking place! Little old wooden houses decorated in traditional way seem just like taken out from some cartoon. Definitely worth to see.
Unique folk architecture. Traditional decorative motive from Cicmany was used for Slovak national outfit on Winter Olympic games in Sochi 2014. History of this petite village dates back to 1272.
все сделано руками без гвоздей. Так уютно! не сравнимо ни с чем! купите что0нибудь из дерева! обязательно на память домой
It was snowing when we visited sublime. Village was stunning taking you back in time. Ski resort was very busy surrounding hills spectacular roads a bit hairy definitly need winter tyres on.
Отдыхали на курорте в Бойницах, для разнообразия решили самостоятельно съездить в Чичманы. Машину брали на прокат. От Бойниц идет трасса на Жилину, дорога хорошая. Деревня расположена недалеко от трассы в горах, среди живописной природы. Да, самобытные дома (избы), из дерева. Прошлись по главной улице, сделали красивые снимки. Для туристов местное население показывает национальные ремесла и промыслы. Есть сувенирная лавка, небольшое кафе, перекусить, в основном кофе и мороженное.
I always return to this small picturesque village and always discover something new. There are wooden houses with tematic paintings from calc. It was used also as a muster for national dresses at the Olympic Games in London.In Radenov dom, u can see, how people used to live before - traditions are the best thing, Slovakia can offer!
I can only recommend this village. There are restaurants, accomodation, church and especially very nice landscape with flocks of sheep, mountains and stream just in the middle of the village.
wooden colored homes located in mountainous area close to Žilina town. Homes are manualy painted from outside.
Yuray Kudjak and his wife Mariella, who run a cafe in Cicmany as well as organising cultural and traditional craft events, made our visit to the village memorable. They both speak good English and were able to explain about the history of the village as well as their plans to make village life more accessible to tourists. This is a Slovakian experience not to be missed.
This small village is well worth a visit. Although small the painted houses and pastoral setting are fantastic with the village sitting in valley. There are numerous walks into the hills starting from the area. Although small there are a number of restaurants/cafes. Generally a relaxed atmosphere.
