Ever since Slovenia joined the European Union, Ljubljana, the capital city, has become one of the hottest new places to visit in Europe. Outdoor cafes, restaurants and boutique shops create a lively atmosphere in the historic city center, especially during the warm months.
For those interested in cultural attractions, Ljubljana has a restored castle, museums and architectural sites, including several beautiful bridges that cross the river Ljubljanica.
Things to Do
Head to the city center to see the Three Bridges, the open-air market and other historic buildings. Ride the Castle Train up to the Ljubljana Castle, enjoying views of the city along the way.
Stop for a cold drink, fresh fruit or ice cream at one of the outdoor cafes overlooking the river.
Where to Stay
Accommodations in the city range from inexpensive to luxury. If you want to splurge, stay right in the city center at the historic Grand Hotel Union. Other good choices in the city center are Hotel Slon and Hotel Lev.
For a list of other accommodation options, including hotels, apartments and private rooms, visit the Ljubljana Tourist Information web site.
Best Time to Go
The best months to visit are May and September when the weather is usually sunny and warm. Summers in the city get quite hot, so if you are traveling to Slovenia in July and August, spend a few days in Ljubljana and then head to the mountains where it's cooler.
