4 Reasons to travel to Slovenia
Slovenia is one such country that is gaining more tourists. Thanks to its small size, it is easy to move from one city to another, a natural space tourist to another. But sometimes, despite the proximity, if you pretend to know the country using public transport, the task is complicated: you have to organize well, there are few trains and buses, and their hours are quite restricted. This problem does not exist if you travel by car.
Koper is a unique city. On the border with Italy, until 1825 was an island. In the streets it shows Venetian influence, and its most symbolic building is the Palace of the praetors. The interest of Koper is the beaches; so on hot summer streets are filled Slovenian and strangers that they are looking to take a dip in one of the restaurants operated by private beaches.
Between Koper and Ljubljana, near Diva is the Natural Park of the Škocjan Caves, a World Heritage Site. The tours are guided mandatory, and the House Martello is impressive, with 123 meters wide by 300 long and 146 feet high. It’s fun to look for similarities between stalactites and stalagmites with some objects of everyday life.
And we come to Ljubljana, the capital of the country. It’s relaxing stroll along the banks of the river Ljubljanica to the center, while you are watching the city environment. One of the best views of it is there from the Bridge of Dragons Lenik to the market with the Cathedral in the background. Or the castle from almost every corner of the city.
After visiting the Cathedral, the street is lovely to stroll Misting for it thanks to the colors of its buildings. This is where the Town Hall, with a temporary exhibition hall. Nearby is the Plaza de Preteen, which includes one of the symbols of the city: the Three Bridges. A little further from the center we have the French Revolution Square, which since the 50 is used to shelter the festivals held in the city.
And further, on the hill overlooking the city, we find the castle. Above are within walking distance, or by cable car to enjoy panoramic views. The castle, which is the symbol of Ljubljana, which was built by Emperor Frederick III in the fifteenth century in the same location where before there were others. Its Gothic chapel dating from 1489 and the viewpoint of 1848. For years it was used as a prison since mid-1980 began its restoration.
And we come to what is not in the guides when going out at night, if you like the alternative is very close to the train station there is a place where you can learn how to have fun Slovenian youth: a large hall with bar, squatting, art and even a tree house which can go up if you want, but requires a good deal of agility. The other option is the bar area at the edge of Ljubljana.
