We enjoyed our last night in Budapest before heading off the Bratislava for our tour of the Volkswagen plant. When we arrived to the plant it looked a bit larger the most of the car manufacturing plants in the United States. Little did we realize that it was massive. It's area was around 1,780,058 meters square.It was compared to being the size of 160 football fields. That is Insane! This plant also produces around 1,800-2,100 cars in a day. The Porshe Cayenne is also manufactured is this same building also. This plant mainly exports to the EU countries as well as the US and China. This plant is so large that employees have the option of riding a bike to there destination within the company's campus.
After our enlightening tour of the VW plant we traveled into the town of Bratislava to eat lunch before heading to Vienna. I had lamb for the first time at this Argentinian restaurant. Although we didn't have much time for sight seeing Bratislava was a nice small little town. We then arrived in Vienna where we met our new host, Manuela. She seems like a very knowledgable tour guide who has traveled for a large part of her life. I look forward to what this new city has to offer.
