LJUBLJANA WITH A PERSONAL TOUCH
Ljubljana is our city, because we believe it has just the right balance of everything. It is urban, yet the nearest park or forest is only a few minutes away. It has a charming old town where layers of architectural history intertwine—from the Middle Ages, Baroque, Classicism, Art Nouveau, and Functionalism to contemporary architecture. It has a castle perched on a hill, with a river flowing below it, around which the city has grown and evolved. It has delightful neighborhoods such as Trnovo, Prule, Šiška, and Koseze, offering interesting destinations for leisure and recreation. It is home to the architect Jože Plečnik, a master who shaped the city in a way few architects have shaped any city in the world. Ljubljana also boasts Cukrarna, the National Gallery of Slovenia, the Museum of Modern Art Ljubljana, and many other venues for cultural escapes, while Slovenian creativity can be discovered in carefully curated boutiques and throughout the city streets. The local culinary scene has also experienced a remarkable renaissance in recent years. Even a visit to Odprta kuhna at the Central Market is a unique summer experience, where visitors can sample a wide variety of delicious specialties. Discover Ljubljana through our eyes!
