Romantic and rich in history, lively and full of attractions, Ljubljana is a city that surprises and captivates visitors. With its magnificent landscapes, <strong>extraordinary architecture, rich cultural heritage<\/strong> (the result of exchanges and influences), and cheerful, relaxed atmosphere, it is very easy to fall in love with it.<\/p>\n<p>And it is not hard to discover its treasures, all close at hand and reachable with a walk or a pleasant bike ride.<\/p>\n<p>On the hill, <strong>the imposing bulk of the castle<\/strong> dominates the city from above, which lies along the Ljubljanica River (well worth a boat trip). The <strong>historic centre contains the main monuments and the most interesting sites<\/strong>, while beautiful museums and galleries celebrate art at the highest level, and the city market is a concentration of the history and traditions of Ljubljana\u2019s people.<\/p>\n<p>Each district preserves its own historical character: medieval, Baroque or Art Nouveau, although the entire city is \u201cmarked\u201d by the incredible works of the <strong>brilliant architect and urban planner Jo\u017ee Ple\u010dnik<\/strong>, who, from the 1920s until the beginning of the Second World War, was entrusted with redesigning the city according to his own taste.<\/p>\n<p>Bridges are a distinctive feature of the Slovenian capital. Many cross the Ljubljanica and <strong>offer picturesque views, perfect to photograph <\/strong>or simply admire.<\/p>\n<p>Charming caf\u00e9s and lively venues line the riverbanks, where the atmosphere becomes especially magical at night. There are therefore many reasons to visit Ljubljana, a tourist destination perhaps a little too often overlooked.<\/p>\n<p>On this page, we recommend <strong>the 10 things you absolutely must do and see during your visit to Ljubljana.<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"td_quote_box td_box_center\">\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">If you are looking for a hotel, we recommend <a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/city\/si\/ljubljana.it.html?aid=340168;label=lubianaparagrafo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Booking.com<\/strong><\/a>.

However, it was only in the second half of the 15th century that the changes made by the duke, later Emperor Frederick III, completely altered its appearance and size.<\/p>\n<p>With the exception of the outer walls and the Chapel of St George (1489), all the castle\u2019s main buildings were rebuilt in the 16th and 17th centuries following the terrible earthquake of 1515.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In the mid-17th century, the stronghold lost its function as a fortress and noble residence and became a military warehouse.<\/strong> Following the French occupation of the city (1809), the castle was used as a barracks and military hospital. With the return of the Austrians, the structure was converted into a provincial prison.<\/p>\n<p>Between 1845 and 1848, the old wooden fire lookout tower (the Viewing Tower) was replaced by a new masonry tower. <strong>In 1849 the castle was abandoned until, in 1868, it was once again used as a penitentiary<\/strong>, a function it maintained until the end of the Second World War.<\/p>\n<p>Purchased by the municipality in 1905 and subjected to lengthy restoration works (still ongoing), today the castle is a <strong>popular tourist destination<\/strong> hosting concerts, cultural events, exhibitions and performances.<\/p>\n<h3>Opening hours and ticket price for Ljubljana Castle<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Opening hours<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p><strong>January &#8211; March and November &#8211; December<\/strong>: 9 a.m. &#8211; 6 p.m.<br \/>\n<strong>April, May and October<\/strong>: 10 a.m. &#8211; 7 p.m.<br \/>\n<strong>June &#8211; September<\/strong>: 9 a.m. &#8211; 10 p.m.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ticket<\/strong>: with funicular \u20ac13.

Bridge, it was <strong>built in 1900 to honour the 40 years of rule of Emperor Franz Joseph I <\/strong>(1848-1888), replacing the old wooden bridge known as the \u201cButchers\u2019 Bridge\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>In 1919, the work was renamed Zmajski Most (Dragon Bridge) in reference to the monstrous creatures placed at its four corners, symbols taken from the coat of arms of <strong>Ljubljana, a city that, according to mythology, was founded by Jason, the Greek hero who killed the dragon <\/strong>that lived in the marsh near the source of the Ljubljanica River.<\/p>\n<p>Because of the terrifying appearance of the dragons on their pedestals, locals have ironically nicknamed it \u201cmother-in-law\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The innovative structure was designed by the Austrian engineer Josef Melan, a famous designer of reinforced-concrete bridges, and built by the Dalmatian architect Jurij Zaninovi\u0107, who designed the decorative balustrades, bronze lamps and hammered-copper dragons.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_wrapper td_block_separator td_block_wrap vc_separator tdi_40  td_separator_solid td_separator_center\"><span
