Ljubljana is the capital and largest city of Slovenia. Ljubljana has a nickname Little Prague because it is a charming town full of artists, museums, galleries, restaurants and cafes. Prešeren Square, the central square in the city, formed in the 17th century, when the Franciscan Church of the Annunciation was built. At the eastern side of the square, the Statue of France Preseren, for the greatest poet in the nation, was erected. The Triple Bridge connects the square with the old medieval town. In this historical part of the city is situated St Nicholas's Cathedral, one of the most important churches in Slovenia. Also in the old town, but a bit away from the main tourist area, is the St James’s Church which houses beautiful altars. The seat of the City Municipality of Ljubljana, the Town Hall, stands at major square in the center, close to Ljubljana Cathedral. The Parliament of Slovenia, another government building, is located in front of the Republic Square, a place with a significant importance for Slovene history. The University of Ljubljana, the largest and the oldest university in the country, brings together students to whom the city owes much of its youthful character. A stone throw from the university is one of the most important national, educational and cultural institutions of Slovenia, the National and University Library. Ljubljana is the cultural center that can be seen at every step, besides many open space exhibitions, there are also many museums, such as: The International Center of Graphic Arts in Tivoli Park. The country’s oldest scientific and cultural institution, the National Museum. The National Gallery, an exhibition hall that hosts the best national art. The Museum of Modern Art which presents art works from the last century. It’s also worth a visit the Metelkova City, once a military barrack, now a self-declared autonomous culture place. The Museum of Contemporary Art, with many present day paintings and sculptures. In the same neighborhood as the Ethnographic Museum which exhibits multinational artifacts. The Ljubljana Castle, the city’s most striking landmark, is a medieval castle built in the 12th century on the summit of Castle Hill. It is a tourist sight and a picturesque venue for events. From the castle’s tower stretches a magnificent view of all the city. A good place to see the town from other perspectives is from the Skyscraper. On top of the building is a bar with excellent views. ------------------------------------------------- Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYTtl9EEkJaDWJgIdX40-Cg?sub_confirmation=1 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Travel.Around.The.World.0/ Email: theworld.travelaround@gmail.com Ljubljana a Little Prague, Prešeren Square, Ljubljana Franciscan Church of the Annunciation, Statue of France Prešeren, Ljubljana Triple Bridge, Ljubljana Old Town, Ljubljana St Nicholas's Cathedral, Ljubljana St James's Church, Ljubljana Town Hall, Robba Fountain, Parliament of Slovenia, Ljubljana Republic Square, University of Ljubljana, National and University Library, Tivoli Park, The International Center of Graphic Arts, National Museum of Slovenia, Slovenian National Gallery, Ljubljana Museum of Modern Art, Metelkova City, Ljubljana Museum of Contemporary Art, Ljubljana Ethnographic Museum, Ljubljana Castle, Ljubljana Skyscraper, Ljubljana Cobblers' Bridge, Ljubljana Dragon Bridge, Ljubljana Roman Ruins, Ljubljana Church of the Holy Trinity, Ljubljana Opera, Slovenian Philharmonic Travel, Travel Around The World, Ljubljana, Slovenia, Balkans, Capital, Travel to Ljubljana, Visit Ljubljana, What to see in Ljubljana, Best places in Ljubljana, Top best things to do in Ljubljana, Where to go in Ljubljana, Top best places to visit in Ljubljana, Interesting places in Ljubljana, Travel to Slovenia, Visit Slovenia, What to see in Slovenia, Best places in Slovenia, Top best things to do in Slovenia, Where to go in Slovenia, Top best places to visit in Slovenia, Interesting places in Slovenia Music by: Daydreamer - Skyscrapers https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWAVAxtE2gY&index;=3&list;=PLblvKv2DEVi65i7GbaKbyHuXtH3EAtxWZ Mr Slightly Fly - Free Royalty Music https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9dgObcblvWnaQo0eYt8NQA Intro & Outro: http://videohive.net/user/IDsains
