Slovenia (6/6): Ljubljana, the capitol

Our last destination: Ljubljana. Immediately we fell in love with the vividness of Slovenia's capitol. Beautiful old houses, cosy streets, nice people, lots of pubs and cafeterias, great beer, a river that runs through the historic city, bright sunlight - all this creates an open, heartwarming atmosphere of the university town. We loved to just sit, sip and watch!

This Whitsun break we travelled to a European country, which hoisted four different banners within the last 100 years (Hungarian-Austrian, Italian, German, Yugoslawian) before it finally, just 25 years ago, became Slovenia. The "green heart of Europe" comes up with alpine mountains (Karavankas), sea (Adriatic Coast), downs, woodlands and karst.
