Bled, a beautiful city surrounded by the Alps.
Climb up to Bled Castle, which towers over a 130m cliff, and take in the scenery of Lake Bled, made of perpetual snow, at a glance.
Bled Island, a quiet pilgrimage site and the eye of the Alps.
Immerse yourself in the romantic beauty of Bled Island, located in the middle of the lake, aboard the Pletna, a traditional ferry boat that has only operated for 23 years since the 18th century.
Slovenia is famous for its unique karst topography.
It is said that there are thousands of limestone caves that have not yet been excavated…
At Postojna Cave, which is considered one of the longest caves in the world, admire works of art carved by Mother Nature 2 million years ago, including huge stalagmites, stalactites, and stone columns.
Predjama Castle, the world’s largest cave castle, is built as if embedded in a 123m high limestone cliff!
This castle, with over 800 years of history, has a special story.
From the secret space hidden within the impregnable fortress, we listen to the interesting story of Erazem Rueger, the lord of the castle, who fought to the death with the king.
Piran, a beautiful coastal city!
This place, which was the center of maritime trade from ancient times to the Middle Ages, is an attractive place with its blue Adriatic Sea and European-style red roofs.
In particular, Piran’s salt is famous for being produced using traditional methods to this day.
Climb the walls of Piran, enjoy the warm sunset, and board the boat of Mr. Dushan, a fisherman whom we met by chance while walking along the coastline of Piran.
A glimpse into the dynamic daily lives of those who live alongside the Adriatic Sea.
Move the small wooden stick around according to the pattern!
The bobbin lace craft, which was started by the wives of mine workers in the 17th century to earn extra income, is unique in its method.
We stop by Idriya, the home of bobbin lace, and meet the people who keep the tradition by creating Idriya’s unique patterns and designs.
Idriya’s representative traditional food, zlicropi.
Victoria Kraus, the daughter of a mercury mine supervisor, is said to have created the zlicrofy in memory of her lover, Napoleon…
Let’s hear the special story behind this food that resembles Napoleon’s hat.
A city is a hieroglyph that testifies to human history and a living space where the past, present, and future coexist. Gods and humans, life and death, history and culture breathe in the city.
