VISIT SLOVENIA 2 - Slovenian coast

In previous post I presented to you two Slovenian caves. Because from Postonjska cave is only one hour and from Škocjan cave is only half hour to the Adriatic sea, I will today tell you something about short Slovenian coast. Slovenian coast is shorter than 50 kilometers. There are 4 larger cities on the coast: Koper, Izola, Piran, Portorož. Koper is the largest, its about 30.000 inhabitants in Koper. Koper is economical center of this region and also university city. University of Primorska has around 7000 students, but number of students grows fast.

If you are visiting Slovenian coast during summer you can enjoy in numerous cultural events and party events. I would recommend you to go in Izola on cinema festival named Kino otok. If you are interested in movies,you will find more information about
program on this link: film festival in Izola.




Old town Koper








Piran is picturesque small old city. It is nice for easy walking through the city and drinking beer in the pubs, and few kilometers away is Portorož - the most popular touristic point at our sea. Portorož is very popular amongst young people and also older population, but Izola and Koper are much more interesting places for me.


Piran










I wanted to write longer post about our coast, but because I am very tired today and because our coast is just 46 kilometers long also my post today will be very short :)
maybe I will upgrade this post in next days.

VISIT SLOVENIA 1 - CAVES : POSTONJSKA JAMA and ŠKOCJANSKE JAME


Today I am starting with serial posting about Slovenia named VISIT SLOVENIA. In this posts I will write about 10 touristic points, which you must visit when you come to Slovenia. First post is about very famous touristic attraction in Slovenia - caves. I will describe the longest and most famous - Postonjska jama and the most beautiful - Škocjanske jame.







POSTOJNSKA JAMA


Postojnska Jama is the largest and the most widely known of around 7000 caves in Slovenia. Since opening in 1819 Postonjska jama attracted more than 30 million visitors from all over the world. Cave is compounded from a network of more than 20 kilometers of tunnels, caverns and chambers. Postojnska caves are very beautiful but for many people to touristy. There is to much crowded with tourists and inside also drives electric train. If you visit Postojnska jama then you should also see castle Predjamski grad. (Castle not far away from cave. Here is link for all information about Postonjska jama : Postonjska jama






ŠKOCJAN CAVES


Škocjan caves are located on a half way from city Postojna to the adriatic sea and city Koper . River Reka flows through the cave. If you don't have time to go to both caves I would rather choose Škocjan caves then Potojnska caves, because it is not so commercial and it is not so many visitors and you can enjoy the beauty of the cave in peace. you will get information about Škocjanske jame if you click on this link: beautiful cave
