It is hard to find a more picturesque natural landscape in as small an area as Slovenia.
One can explore nature in many different ways: hiking, mountain biking, mountaineering, caving, climbing, swimming, rafting and skiing are available for the adventurous or one can just enjoy the view from a more comfortable nook.
Later the Counts of Celli became an important Slovene family, becoming the only one in history to resist powerful House of Habsburg.
After their fall, the Habsburg Monarchy ruled Slovenia until World War One, evidence of which is still found in the stunning Soča River Valley.
One cultural peculiarity of Slovenia is the countless churches and traditional buildings on nearly every hillside.
There are numerous opportunities to see well preserved castles, such as Ptuj Castle near the River Drava, Carthusian monasteries such as the Pleterje Charterhouse or other built masterpieces such as that from Slovenia’s most famous architect, Jože Plečnik.
The cottage industries and traditional customs of Slovenia are as varied as its landscape.
One can meet people that still continue to practice tradition arts of pottery making, Idrija lace stitching, wooden handcraft sculpting, bee keeping and much more. Add to this the delights of traditional Slovene cuisine and our delicious wines, with specialities found in each region, and one finds a rich, cultural mosaic named Slovenia.
