Visit Slovenia to calm your mind, body and spirit! Located on the Balkan Peninsula and bordered by Croatia, Hungary, Austria and Italy, this scenic European country offers a diversity of urban and historic cities, snow-capped peaks, rivers, lakes and stunning mountainous landscapes.
The capital of Slovenia, Ljubljana (pronounced lub-lee-yana), is also one of Europe’s greenest capitals. Ljubljana highlights include the Ljubljana Castle, the Ljubljanica Riverside and Tivoli - a grand urban park. Keep an eye out for the Ljubljana dragon, the city's symbol of strength, courage and greatness! There is a prominent outdoor culture all around Slovenia with activities like skiing, hiking and kayaking on offer.
Lake Bled is Slovenia's most well-known lake and is not far from Ljubljana. Known as the 'pearl of the Alps', Bled is Slovenia's most popular resort. It boasts pilgrimage churches, the beautiful Bled Island and, in the backdrop, the incredible Julian Alps.
