Ljubljana, Slovenia - Travel Around The World | Top best places to visit in Ljubljana
Top best places to visit in Ljubljana, Slovenia
Ljubljana is the capital and largest city of Slovenia.
Ljubljana has a nickname Little Prague because it is a charming town full of artists, museums, galleries, restaurants and cafes.
Prešeren Square, the central square in the city, formed in the 17th century, when the Franciscan Church of the Annunciation was built.
At the eastern side of the square, the Statue of France Preseren, for the greatest poet in the nation, was erected.
The Triple Bridge connects the square with the old medieval town.
In this historical part of the city is situated St Nicholas's Cathedral, one of the most important churches in Slovenia.
Also in the old town, but a bit away from the main tourist area, is the St James’s Church which houses beautiful altars.
The seat of the City Municipality of Ljubljana, the Town Hall, stands at major square in the center, close to Ljubljana Cathedral.
The Parliament of Slovenia, another government building, is located in front of the Republic Square, a place with a significant importance for Slovene history.
The University of Ljubljana, the largest and the oldest university in the country, brings together students to whom the city owes much of its youthful character.
A stone throw from the university is one of the most important national, educational and cultural institutions of Slovenia, the National and University Library.
Ljubljana is the cultural center that can be seen at every step, besides many open space exhibitions, there are also many museums, such as:
The International Center of Graphic Arts in Tivoli Park.
The country’s oldest scientific and cultural institution, the National Museum.
The National Gallery, an exhibition hall that hosts the best national art.
The Museum of Modern Art which presents art works from the last century.
It’s also worth a visit the Metelkova City, once a military barrack, now a self-declared autonomous culture place.
The Museum of Contemporary Art, with many present day paintings and sculptures. In the same neighborhood as the Ethnographic Museum which exhibits multinational artifacts.
The Ljubljana Castle, the city’s most striking landmark, is a medieval castle built in the 12th century on the summit of Castle Hill. It is a tourist sight and a picturesque venue for events.
From the castle’s tower stretches a magnificent view of all the city.
A good place to see the town from other perspectives is from the Skyscraper.
On top of the building is a bar with excellent views.

Saint Patricks Day in Slovenia.
Everybody loves Ireland, and that includes Slovenia. Watch here how they celebrate it, from a local Irish dancing school to the greening of the Ljubljana castle, and how and where you can photograph it from.

Slovenia - Skofja Loka and Kranj
Half a day stop in two Slovenian towns on the way to the airport. Well worth the visit.
You can catch a bus to Škofja Loka from Ljubljana. The oldest medieval town in Slovenia. From the bus stop take a walk over the 14th century Capuchin Bridge to the centre. Let yourself guided by the narrow streets. The 13th century Parish Church of St James is not to be missed as well.
From the same drop off point, there is another bus that goes to Kranj, the 4th biggest city of the country. Time only allowed me to go in the old town, but one can easily spend a full day here. Plenty of parks to explore, rich architecture and many restaurants to get a taste of Slovenian cuisine.
There is public transport connecting all these town, but even in summer they're quite rare so make sure to check the time table in advance. If you are in a rush a taxi might be a better option as the airport is quite close.
I hope this short video gave you a taste of Slovenia. Thanks for watching.
Ljubljana - Slovenia // Summer 2018
A video of another trip this summer, this time from Ljubljana, Slovenia. It is a very beautiful city, also at night. In the first days the weather wasn´t very good, but it became better on the following days. I continued my trip after some days, taking the train to Rijeka.
Ljubljana is a very beatiful city, which is definitely worth visiting.
