Ljubljana, Slovenia, was one of my favorite stops on my month-long trip around Eastern Europe & the Balkans. I flew to Munich and caught a bus from the main bus station to Ljubljana, the capital city of Slovenia. I was originally only going to spend 2 nights in the city during my backpacking trip, but I am so glad that I changed my itinerary to have extra time here.

It is a nice place for people to visit if you want a beach vacation without having to deal with salt water and sand.
