Let’s discover the unexpected beauty of Ljubljana, a vibrant city with thousands of years long history and that is now pointing to a green future.<\/h2>\n

Ljubljana<\/strong> is an amazing town, a small European gem<\/strong> that in a short time has become a model<\/strong> of livability and eco-sustainability<\/strong> for all medium-sized cities in Europe<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The first thing is the absence of cars<\/strong><\/a> and noise, the second the greenery<\/strong>: when you get to the city center quickly becomes clear why it\u00a0was named European Green Capital<\/strong><\/a>. In just over ten years, Ljubljana, thanks to the administration and the citizens, has been transformed from a modern perspective, emphasizing its history and its culture, and proceeding quickly towards a green<\/strong> future<\/strong>, with zero emissions. New trees have been\u00a0planted, a great and free public transport<\/strong> service has been\u00a0created and the quality of life of citizens has been greatly improved.<\/p>\n

Now the center is closed to traffic, and citizens and tourists move on<\/strong> foot<\/strong> or by bike<\/strong>, they take the Kavalir<\/em><\/a>, free electric<\/strong> taxis<\/strong>\u00a0or Urban, the bus, electric too, which connects the Town Hall Square with the Castle<\/strong> dominating the city from the hill Grajska Planota.<\/p>\n

At the center of the continent, Ljubljana has always been a crossroads<\/strong> of<\/strong> peoples<\/strong>, a city with a long history of 5000 years, still, be seen in its architecture and in its streets. But at the same time it is a young<\/strong> city<\/strong>, thanks to the presence of 22 university faculties, and particularly lively<\/strong>. Theaters, art galleries, local markets, and many events light up\u00a0the Slovenian capital, without losing the relaxed<\/strong> and calm atmosphere<\/strong> that characterizes it.<\/p>\n

Ljubljana is a place to discover slowly, without any programs: strolling along the Ljubljanica River<\/strong>, passing the picturesque bridges<\/strong> (first of all the Dragon<\/strong> Bridge<\/strong>, the symbol of the city), entering\u00a0in the park<\/strong> Tivoli<\/strong>, in the center of the city, cycling\u00a0through the baroque and Art Nouveau palaces, exploring\u00a0the covered market, between\u00a0a boat trip and a glass of Ganje<\/strong><\/em> (typical Slovenian grappa). And so, inevitably, you’ll fall in love with Ljubljana, an incredible city between past and future.<\/p>\n
