východný

Východné is a cadastral area and a part of the Ružinov district in Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. It is located in the eastern part of the city. Historically, Východné was an agricultural area before the large-scale construction of socialist housing estates began in the latter half of the 20th century. Today, it is primarily a residential area, characterized by panel housing blocks, but also featuring some newer developments and green spaces.

The area is well-connected by public transport, including trams and buses, facilitating access to other parts of Bratislava. Východné is served by several schools, kindergartens, and basic amenities such as shops and services. The nearby Štrkovec lake and its surrounding park offer recreational opportunities for residents, providing a popular spot for walks, sports, and relaxation. The development of Východné reflects the broader urban transformation of Bratislava, transitioning from its past agricultural roots to a modern residential district within the expanding city. The name "Východné" itself translates to "Eastern" in Slovak, referring to its geographical position within the city.
