Ljubljana In Rain - Walking Tour - Slovenia

So you want to know what Ljubljana is like? Well take a walk with me in this first person view (FPV) walk through Ljubljana on a rainy, somewhat gloomy day. Hopefully if you're planning on visiting, you'll have a more pleasant weather than me.

So Ljubljana is the capital and largest city of Slovenia and has been the cultural, educational, economic, political, and administrative centre of independent Slovenia since 1991.

During antiquity, Romans named the city Emona, which had fortified walls and a well functioning water and sewage system. Fast forward, Ljubljana itself was first mentioned in the first half of the 12th century.

Situated at the middle of a trade route between the northern Adriatic Sea and the Danube region, it was the historical capital of Carniola, one of the Slovene-inhabited parts of the Habsburg Monarchy. It was under Habsburg rule from the Middle Ages until the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1918.

After World War II, Ljubljana became the capital of the Socialist Republic of Slovenia, part of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. It retained this status until Slovenia became independent in 1991 and Ljubljana became the capital of the newly formed state.

Slovenia, wedged between Austria and Italy, has always been proud of its unique heritage. The capital, Ljubljana, is a perfect example of this blend of German, Mediterranean, and Slovenian culture. The old town is a blend of Baroque, Renaissance, and Art Nouveau buildings, watched over by a medieval castle. Cut through the gardens of Tivoli Park to the National Museum of Contemporary History for a history of modern Slovenia, featuring crumbled statues of Stalin and a recreation of a WWI trench.
