Ken Munsie: 122. A Day in Ljubljana

I packed a lot into my one day in beautiful Ljubljana - including two museums, a alternative cultural centre, a good look around the city ... as well as lunch and a couple of coffees - and a major thunderstorm that caught everyone unawares and scurrying for shelter ... ...

Like most European cities there is the old and the new cities - here the old city has been developed as a major tourist drawcard, with most of the cobbled streets closed off to normal vehicular traffic and turned over to the hordes of hungry tourists that will descend shortly ...

And through its centre runs the Ljubjlanica canal.

The Triple Bridge ...

The Butcher's Bridge - with love message padlocks ...

Walking around the city I was amazed by the number of sculptures - many adorning public and apartment buildings - others on street corners or in parks ... most though have no details as to who or what they are ... but it gives the place a great creative feel ...
