Metroji clue #138

Bratislava in five emoji

Slovakia

A capital on the Danube close enough to Vienna to cycle between them, and the only one that borders two countries. Much of the old town was destroyed for a road.

What each emoji refers to

The bridge tower has a restaurant and viewing deck in a disc at the top, which is what everyone calls it.
The church of Saint Elizabeth is art nouveau and painted blue inside and out, down to the roof tiles.
The approach road to that bridge was driven through the old Jewish quarter in the 1970s, and the synagogue went with it.
The Small Carpathians start at the edge of the city, and the wine road through them is a weekend institution.
Austria is fifteen minutes away and Hungary about twenty, which no other capital can claim.
