Among Slovenia’s top cultural sites are the impressive Ljubljana Castle, the oldest vine in the world in Maribor, the second largest city, and some of the planet’s most staggering caves.

Many of our country’s historic castles, like the luxurious Grad Otočec, and Gredič Castle, have even been converted into intriguing and luxurious hotels.
