NE Slovenia, gems of Styria, Zice & Olimje monastery, Rogaska Slatina & Slovenske konjice
Your guide Tina takes you to the region of Styria in NE Slovenia and shows you two important monasteries and two interesting towns.
Our first stop is in the town of Slovenske Konjice, known as the town of wine and flowers. A walk through the streets of the town, first mentioned in 1165, takes you to the arch parish church of St George which dates to 13 century. Listen to the priests singing when you enter the church. At the time of the Ottoman raids, the church served as a fortified refuge.
Our second stop is in Žiče charterhouse, established in 1160. This was a first Carthusian monastery in the German world and also, the first outside of France or Italy. Its monastic church was dedicated to St John the Baptist. Many cultural events happen during summer; concerts and even weddings. We welcome 20.000 visitors per day.
Our third stop is in Rogaška Slatina, a health resort with 400 years of tradition and the unique Donat Mg mineral water. Rogaška Slatina was awarded the Slovenia Green Destination designation.
Our fourth and final stop is in Olimje Monastery, which lies only a stone throw away from the border of Croatia. It was first a castle in the 16 century, converted to a monastery in the 17 century. Olimje is considered the 3rd oldest pharmacy in the world (1663), after Paris and Dubrovnik. The frescoes in the round room tell us about the path to health and happiness.
Visit the region of Slovenia Styria and learn more about the legends and stories of Slovenian noble family, Counts of Celje. Ask your local guide Tina about the love story between Veronika of Desenic and the count's son, Friderik II. What a story!

Slovenia is a corner of Europe that first caught my attention when I decided to backpack through Eastern Europe over 10 years ago. Whilst it's a relatively small country it is easy for visitors to see various landscapes relatively quickly.
This video gives you some suggestions about where to go if you are restricted to public transportation throughout the country. I've pieced together destinations rather different from one another with the intention some place will catch your eye.
So sit back & enjoy the ride.

Postojna Slovenia
Postojna je upravno središče občine Postojna ter največje mesto oziroma najpomembnejše prometno in geografsko središče zgodovinske pokrajine Notranjske oziroma Primorsko-notranjske statistične regije.
Mestno naselje z nekaj manj kot 10.000 prebivalci leži na položnem pobočju nad dnom vzhodnega dela Spodnje Pivke, pod južnim robom Postojnskih vrat (612 m), kjer je najzložnejši prehod iz notranjosti Slovenije proti morju. Tod vodijo stara (regionalna) cesta, avtocesta in železnica iz smeri Ljubljane, ki je oddaljena 48 kilometrov.
Največja znamenitost Postojne je Postojnska jama. Poznali in obiskovali so jo že v srednjem veku, o čemer pričajo podpisi iz 13. stoletja v Rovu starih podpisov. V Valvasorjevem času so obiskovalce vodili tudi v Črno jamo. Del jame, ki je danes turistično urejen, je leta 1818 odkril jamski vodnik Luka Čeč. V Postojni je delovala posebna jamska komisija, ki je skrbela za vodenje po jami, pa tudi za razvoj turizma nasploh. Število obiskovalcev je stalno naraščalo, samo leta 1985 si je jamo ogledalo 942.258 turistov, njihovo skupno število pa je do leta 1987 preseglo 23 milijonov. Zaradi nestabilnih političnih razmer, razpada Jugoslavije in vojne leta 1991 se je število obiskovalcev močno zmanjšalo, nato pa spet začelo rasti. Do danes je jamo obiskalo preko 34 milijonov ljudi.

The old Castle in Konjice / Slovenia
Ruins of the Castle from 12th century at the top of small hill just over the city of Konjice. In the end of December the Sun is pretty low over the horizon and the light is good.
The castle was destroyed in fire at the middle of the 17teen century and was never rebuilt.
The only renovated part is the Tower which is pretty high and actually the only part of the castle visible from the city. The renovation was not very successful and it has now quite different look as the remaining parts of the castle. The surrounding terrain is perfect for recreational activities, picnics etc.
Slovenske Konjice Stolpnik 1012 m marec 2018
Začetek poti v Slovenskih Konjicah po cesti mimo pokopališča do mesta kjer se z gozdne ceste odcepi označena pohodna pot.Do vrha je kar dve uri hoje morda v tem času tudi več saj globok sneg otežuje normalno hojo.Precej globoko se udira kar je posledica toplega vremena in debele snežne odeje.Bilo je precej vetrovno zato se na vrh razglednega stolpa nisem podal....razgled sem že večkrat občudoval.....
Visit to Ljubljana in Slovenia
This is a short video of my trip to Ljubljana, the capital city of Slovenia.
It is a bustling city and well known for it's university population and green spaces, including the expansive Tivoli Park. The curving Ljubljanica River, lined in outdoor cafes, divides the city's old town from it's commercial hub (new town). Ljubljana has many museums, including the National Museum of Slovenia, displaying historic exhibitions and the Museum of Modern Art, and also home to 20th century Slovene paintings and sculptures.
In this leg of my trip, I visited some of the key landmarks of the city that included the Castle of Ljubljana, where I rode on the funicular railway up the top that offered a great bird eye's view of the city; the old town, where some of the well-preserved medieval houses; the open-air central market; the Baroque town hall and the beautiful Rabba's Fountain; the grandiose Triple Bridge and Dragon Bridge.
It was a fun and interesting walking tour here! Afterwhich in the evening, I continued my journey to Salzburg and stayed at a luxury hotel by the lake. It was awesome!
Do stay tune to more of my videos in Slovenia and Austria and the rest of the world as I walk-around the world!

Slovenia In 48 Hours
As one of Europes smallest capital cities, Ljubljana is known for its castle, Tivoli City Park and museums. The peaceful curving River with its many bridges divides the old town and the modern commercial hub. This is a truly lovely place to visit with easy access to most of the tourist attractions, everywhere is generally walkable with many things to see and do on most routes. Lake Bled is the tranquil cherry on top of this city visit, slightly further out but definitely worth it! I stayed at the Intercontinental which was great the spa and views were 5*. Places to eat were good with quality local ingredients these included JB restaurant, Strelec and most of the café's along the river are easy-going relaxed and have some great desserts! LBLx
