Europe - Southern Europe - Slovenia
Resting between the Alps and the Adriatic and poised above – but not a part of – the Balkan peninsula, Slovenia has been blessed with incredible natural beauty and has welded a great number of outside influences – from Roman and Venetian to Germanic and Hungarian – onto its Slavic core. The result is a physical and cultural alloy that is wholly distinctive and distinctly precious. The country abounds in top-notch things to see – the stunning Julian Alps, the beautiful but busy Lake Bled and the more relaxed Lake Bohinj, the karst caves of Postojna and its lovely sliver of the Adriatic around Piran. Equally compelling are historic towns like Ptuj and cities like Ljubjana, both with unforgettable architecture, museums and a unique energy all of their own. In the land of the great outdoors, the list of activities is almost endless: canoeing and kayaking in spring, swimming and water-skiing in summer, hiking and climbing in autumn, and skiing and snowboarding in winter. The Slovenes themselves are quietly conservative but deeply self-confident, broadminded, tolerant and very friendly and hospitable.
