Feel Slovenia at ITB Berlin. This year`s Slovenian tourism highlights are Healthy Waters and Ljubljana, the "European Green Capital 2016". The green spirit will be in the spotlight! There will be water to quench your thirst and plenty of pampering ideas for holidays in Slovenian natural health resorts and spa centres. Active types will be impressed by the array of exciting outdoor activities and holidays in Slovenia, between the Alps and the Mediterranean. Visit Stand 109 in Hall 17 and meet your Slovenian partners from the Slovenian Tourist Board, green destinations, and natural health resorts. Be inspired by the cultural, culinary and outdoor experience in green, active and healthy Slovenia.

ITB Berlin ranks among the top international tourist fairs and it is a valuable opportunity to strengthen the tourism potential of Slovenia within the German market, which is showing an unprecedented growth in Slovenia. According to provisional statistical data, Slovenia has experienced an increase of 23% in German visitors in January 2016 and an increase of 25% in overnight stays compared to January 2015. Connecting flights have also played an important role. Besides the regular flights between Ljubljana and the cities of Berlin, Frankfurt and Munich, two additional flight connections have been established in 2016, connecting Düsseldorf and Maribor and an Adria Airways flight between Cologne and Ljubljana.

Slovenia, which has been recognised as the fifth greenest country in the world by the "Environmental Performance Index - EPI" produced by Yale University and the World Economic Forum (WEF), will also present itself at the ITB Congress within the panel Green Destination (Hall 4.1), introducing the Green Scheme of Slovenian tourism and the eco-label SLOVENIA GREEN.

Slovenia is also eagerly waiting for the announcement of the awards for the Das Goldene Stadttor - Internationaler Filmwettbewerb, as the Slovenia Tourist Board has submitted two promotional videos from Slovenia:

* Invitation to Slovenia: Feel Slovenia

* Invitation to green, active and healthy Slovenia with Perpetuum Jazzile
