Description
In this online experience, you will visit Ljubljana's charming historical centre. Named after the green Ljubljanica River that winds through the city, Ljubljana traces its roots date back to ancient Roman times and has amassed a number of architectural styles to boast about throughout the years.
We will begin our tour with a visit to the Triple Bridge, followed by those to the Congress Square, the Academia Philharmonicorum, and the National Library with its unique architecture and windows that look like open books.
As we walk around, find out why the Butcher's Bridge is also called the Bridge of Love and why the Jewish Street is considered so special, and get to know what is hidden inside the old town of Ljubljana. I will take you to see the Prešeren Monument and tell you more about the story of the greatest Slovenian poet and his muse.
Familiarise yourself with the history of Ljubljana as we wander this mostly pedestrian district that serves as the city's creative and cultural hub. I look forward to seeing you soon!
