A small country, half the size of Switzerland in the south of central Europe, Slovenia is full of unusual and often special attractions and experiences, from primeval forests to a lively architecturally lovely city, and thermal springs to the mysterious Karst (limestone plateau) caves.
The country is sandwiched between Italy, Croatia, Hungary and Austria, with a coastline on the Adriatic Sea to the south west.
Visitors to this picturesque corner of Europe continent can really enjoy several amazing contrasting experiences in the space of one day: start with a morning dip in the Adriatic, followed by a couple of hours skiing on Alpine slopes, then explore the subterranean wonders of the Karst or become invigorated with a thermal bath, before strolling through vine clad hills or ancient forests, and ending the day in a sophisticated casino. Ideally, though, it takes much longer than a day to sample all the delights of this fascinating Republic.
The vibrant capital city, Ljubljana, sports a mix of Baroque, Renaissance and Art Nouveau architecture, exuding an Austro Alpine atmosphere gleaned from belonging to the Austro Hungarian Empire for many centuries.
Finally, Slovenia boasts of having 2,000 hours of sunshine a year in which to enjoy all its offerings. The locals are proud to explain why visitors are enchanted with their country: Slovenia is the only country in the world with love in its name.
