So here we have the main square downtown. There's this huge fountain (seen in the middle picture) surrounded by old, tall buildings which are all very beautiful and I love them a lot!!
And then there's a big river that runs right through the center of town, so there are so many bridges that cross over. Two of the most popular of those bridges are the Butcher's Bridge and the Dragon Bridge, seen below respectively.
The Butcher's Bridge has loads and loads of the love locks on them, which is super cute and nice and I always really liked those. Personally, I liked the couple who attached a Bike Lock to the rails...
And then the Dragon Bridge is the most famous bridge. I guess it's the main meet-up spot for people. Just a whole thing of "yeah meet me at the dragon bridge because we all know where that is." And so the Dragon is the symbol of Ljubljana, which is why all the souvenir shops have little plush dragons on them.
Also, something pretty cool about Ljubljana is that it has its own weather-circle. So in the heat of the summer, guests can stand in the center of the plaza and be rained on, (which was super nice) via sprinklers on wires overhead. Sorry, but my pictures of it are on the camera, so you'll get a picture I found online.
The other main place I spent time in was the park about a kilometer away from the city center, and I loved it so much!! The house in the center had dog statues out in front that I got to take selfies with! And the grass was so green and the sky so blue and the trees so... Tree-y, and everything was quiet except for the breeze and wow I like it there.



You get the idea.
The other place I visited that was pretty cool was the Castle, but it wasn't very extensive unless you wanted to pay like €10 which I didn't, because I could still see the main towers and the view from the castle for free. So it was pretty neat. There was an art show going on inside, so there were little pieces of art everywhere including this gem:
Please if you know what it is, I am so so confused...
