The most interesting and beautiful tourist sites in Slovenia
Photos, reviews, descriptions, and links to maps
The small Central European country of Slovenia attracts with its abundance of medieval castles and churches. The old towns surprise with different architectural styles, ranging from rough Romanesque to elegant Rococo. Slovenes treat all these centuries-old buildings with care, trying to preserve the atmosphere of their ancient heritage.
The uniqueness of the local nature is in the contrast. Without leaving the country, you can laze on the beach of the Adriatic Sea and a couple of hours later you can be skiing down an alpine slope. Also, nowhere else in Europe can you find such an abundance of unique karst rocks that form interesting natural monuments.
People come here to improve their health both physically and mentally. Slovenia, famous for its thermal springs, attracts tourists with professional health resorts. The protected areas formed on the territory of the country preserve the picturesque landscapes of crystal clear glacial lakes, impregnable waterfalls and lush alpine meadows in pristine condition.
The reservoir, located among the mountain peaks in north-western Slovenia, has as its main attraction a single islet with the Chapel of the Assumption. The Bell of Wishes, surrounded by legends, is located there. The scenic beauty of the mountain lake can be explored from the water surface by travelling on special boats called “pletnas”.
