Ljubljana is the charming capital of Slovenia and a vibrant center of history, architecture, and urban life. The compact city on the Ljubljanica River is known for its picturesque Old Town, medieval castle, landmarks such as the Triple Bridge and Dragon Bridge, and the distinctive urban legacy of architect Jože Plečnik.
