Ljubljana Sightseeing
Sightseeing Overview
The city's castle harks high above the city, making it a good place to start, offering sweeping views of the city. The old town below is a cobbled warren of boutique shops, pavements cafes and restaurants and also houses the city's dramatic cathedral and its daily market.
Across the landmark Triple Bridge is the city's main square, Prešernov Trg, which ushers in a wealth of art nouveau architecture, a major change from the old town's baroque and medieval styles.
With such a large student population, Ljubljana has a thriving cultural scene, which manifests itself in a flurry of galleries and museums, while away from the city's cerebral attractions some of Europe's most unspoilt and dramatic mountain scenery awaits.
