Is Ljubljana and Bled worth visiting from Zagreb?

While in Zagreb, tapping your finger and thinking what to do tomorrow, answer is closer than you expect. Go to Slovenia! In only 2 hours scenic drive, you’re in Slovenia capital – Ljubljana town. We deliberately wrote town, not city. Why? Because compared with titans like London or Paris, Ljubljana has merely 300k people.

But, here, size doesn’t matter. It is charming middle European place, walk-able and divided by river that energizes the town. It offers plenty of spots for coffee time, lunch or just walks along the shore. After visiting Ljubljana, must-see place is gateway to Julian Alps and Karavanke mountain range – Lake Bled.
