Kosice, the second biggest city in Slovakia is such a lovely city and with the colorful houses, charming lanes, impressive interiors, and beautiful architecture. It’s really not difficult to take good Kosice pictures when you visit Kosice.
But, like everywhere else, some places are most Instagram-worthy than others and so I created this small guide to the most Instagrammable places in Kosice.
A bit about the list of most Instagrammable places in Kosice
A little confession time: I’m not a big fan of Instagram and traveling for Instagram pictures only.
But at the same time, I’m looking for some Instagram-shots whenever I travel and Kosice was no exception here. And today I’m happy to share some of my favorite finds with you too so you can take some nice pictures when you travel to Kosice too!
I divided the list to outdoor places (so all the nice corners around the city), interiors and cafes so it will be easier to browse for you.
I also included the map you can download so hunting for Instagrammable places in Kosice will be easier for you.
Outdoor places
INTI mural
Street art in Kosice is pretty good and you can find some really great murals around the city. The most Insta-worthy one is the colorful piece by INTI, an amazing artist from Valparaiso, Chile. Fortunately, you can find it close to the city center, on Zborovska street!
Umbrella Alley
Every Instagrammable city needs to have the umbrella alley and Kosice is no exception here. The colorful lane is located just off the main street, in the courtyard of 21 Hlavna street. Pro-tip – you can find a very good cafe in that courtyard too.
Hrnciarska street
With its colorful houses and numerous small business, Hrnciarska street (Craftsmen Lane) makes a perfect Insta spot.
Zvonarska street
Another colorful, charming street, with a very picturesque turn.
Alzbetina street
You can get the best view of the impressive St. Elisabeth’s Cathedral from colorful Alzbetina street.
Jakab’s Palace
The neogothic Jakab’s Palace is one of the most beautiful buildings in Kosice so obviously it will good also on Instagram.
Singing fountains
In the very heart of Kosice, between the Cathedral and the State Theater, you can find the singing fountains. They can be a bit cheesy but this is surely a picturesque place.
