Ljubljana & Around
Ljubljana is a delightful city – vibrant, great to look at and small enough to get to know in just a couple of days. The Ljubljanica river dissects the city and in the last ten years a lively café and bar culture has sprung up along it its banks. The centre of town is full of elegant squares, pretty churches and lovely baroque and Hapsburg architecture. At the core of the city is the enchanting “old town”, lying between the river and the castle hill with its crenellated castle and clocktower offering spectacular views of the city and the Alps beyond. Ljubljana is increasingly well endowed with first class hotels, shops, restaurants and nightlife and being situated right in the centre of the country it makes a fantastic base for exploring the country - with the Alps, the lakes, the coast and a host of other attractions less than 90 minutes drive away. |
