Arrival in Ljubljana
Awarded the title of Green Capital of Europe by the European Commission in 2016, this little-known capital city combines a pedestrianised old town with countless green spaces and self-governed urban regeneration projects, such as the Metelkova district.
Preseren Square and the historic center
Prešeren Square has become the heart of the Slovenian capital where people hang out and most of the cultural activities take place.
Ljubljana Castle
The Habsburg fortress is perched on a hill offering the finest panoramic views of the city and the Ljubljanica river, and can be reached in a fun and easy way by cable car.
Tivoli Park
Ljubljana's largest and most beautiful park combines unspoilt nature with cultural attractions such as Tivoli Castle (International Centre of Graphic Arts), Cekin Mansion (Museum of Contemporary Slovenian History) and Jakopič Promenade.
Ljubljana Central Market
Ljubljana’s Central Market brings together stalls selling fruit, vegetables, craft items and typical Slovenian food in one impressive building by the river.
Metelkova mesto
Scarcely 15 minutes from the city centre, a former military installation has, since the 1990s, been one of Europe’s most important self-managed cultural centres.
Trip to Piran
The Slovenian pearl of the Adriatic on the Istrian peninsula evokes its glorious past under the Republic of Venice at every turn.
Skocjan Caves
With more than six kilometres of galleries and the largest known underground canyon, this karst system crossed by the Reka River has fascinated humans for millennia.
Predjama Castle
The legendary castle of the knight Erazem fascinated George R.R. Martin, the creator of Game of Thrones, and touring the caves in a 19th century train is undoubtedly a magical experience.
Lake Bled
The emerald waters of this mesmerising glacial lake narrate a legend linked to the church that stands on the centre of an island.
Lake Bohinj
The Julian Alps are reflected in the waters of this glacial lake in Triglav National Park, a perfect spot for those looking to unwind while fishing, hiking or rowing.
Enjoy Slovenian cuisine
The cuisine of this Central European country is a crossroads of Slavic, Austro-Hungarian, Italian and Balkan influences with traditional dishes such as štruklji, golaž and žganci.
