Discovering Ljubljana, Slovenia: Stunning Views, Historic Castles, and Unique Finds 🇸🇮

Join us on an unforgettable journey through Ljubljana, Slovenia! 🌍 Our adventure begins with a bus ride from Rijeka and a stay at the Hotel Lev. From stunning views to delicious meals, and from historic castles to unique cultural spots, this video has it all! 🍽️🏰 We start our exploration with a beautiful view while enjoying lunch 🍽️ and then make our way to the Hotel Lev. The hotel’s ninth-floor room offers a spectacular view 🌅 and is a welcome change from the warmer Croatian coast. We then visit the Tivoli Castle, mistakenly thinking it was the Ljubljana Castle, but enjoying the lush green surroundings nonetheless. 🌳 Our journey continues as we discover the true Ljubljana Castle, taking a tram up the hill 🚋 and marveling at the panoramic views of the Slovenian Alps 🏔️ and the city below. The castle tour includes a visit to the Museum of Puppetry, providing a fascinating glimpse into local culture. 🎭 Walking through Ljubljana’s historic city center, we find ourselves at Preseren Square, admiring the iconic architecture and vibrant atmosphere. 🏛️ We cross numerous bridges, each offering its own charm, and enjoy the local music playing everywhere. 🎶 We stop for a meal at Restaurant Fresco, where Lanette finally gets her octopus salad 🐙, and Johan enjoys salmon and pasta. The scenic view of the castle and the full moon 🌕 from our hotel window adds a magical touch to our evening. The next day, we explore Tivoli Park 🌼, enjoying the cooler weather and the beautiful garden area. Our adventure leads us to the Dragon Bridge 🐉, and later, a surprising encounter with a man walking his emu! 🦙 Our exploration of the Metelkova area reveals a vibrant cultural hub filled with unique street art 🎨 and creative installations. The old military barracks turned cultural center is a testament to the city’s alternative spirit. We wrap up our visit with a relaxing boat ride along the river 🚤, reflecting on the incredible experiences we’ve had in Ljubljana. From quirky encounters to historic landmarks, this trip is full of surprises and unforgettable moments! ✨ Don’t miss out on our funny and insightful moments, including Johan’s iced coffee adventure ☕ and Lanette’s love for octopus salad! 🐙 🌍 Follow Our Journey in Real Time! 🌍 Want to sail the world with us aboard the Villa Vie Odyssey? 🚢 Track our real-time travels and discover each new destination on our website.
