Slovenia
Ljubljana
Ljubljana is a small green capital — a dragon bridge, a castle, and a gateway to the Alps and the coast.
Ljubljana is compact, green, and one of Europe's most livable capitals — a pedestrian old town, a castle on the hill, and a river of cafes. It's the perfect base: an hour to the Julian Alps, an hour to the Adriatic. Stay two days, then explore Slovenia.
