However, in this article we will only be able to mention a few of them, so we have decided to present the capital city of Slovenia and two other small towns.
Ljubljana – one of the greenest places to visit in Europe
The archaeological remains show us that the area was inhabited already in the times of the Roman Empire. The centre of Ljubljana is really one of the best places to visit in Europe, since you can observe many different archaeological styles in a quite small area. The most impressive things to see there are: the triple bridges, built in the same place as its forerunner that once connected the medieval town with the rest of the parts of today’s city, the dragon’s bridge, built for honouring the 40 anniversary of the rule of Franz Joseph (Austrian emperor), the castle, where you can see the 3D film about the history of the castle. You can also climb up the castle’s tower and get the magnificent view over the whole city.
Piran – the most romantic town along the Slovenian coast
Piran is one of the most beautiful towns along the Adriatic coast. It has a very well preserved historical part of the town and has many lovely restaurants along the seaside.
You can also drive to the Sečovlje Salina Nature Park where they still produce salt according to the traditional 700 years old procedure. It is possible to see this procedure n the visitor centre.
Bled – one of the healthiest places to visit in Europe
Bled is most famous for its lake with a small island on it. The place was described as a paradise by the most famous Slovene poet, France Presern.
As it is surrounded by high mountains and the clear air, it comes to no surprise that the famous Swiss helio-hidropat Arnold Rikli choose it for a location for his health centre. He visited Bled when he was ill, and the cured his illness there, so he decided to help other to live healthier life.
