Good morning from Ljubljana city the capital of Slovenia, today we are exploring this city
in case you just joined us, we are Mansoureh and Bruno, we began our road trip seven days ago
in the northwest of Italy by driving east. In the previous episode we left Italy and began
exploring Slovenia by visiting Piran in the south of the country, we continued our journey
until we reached Ljubljana one of the smallest European capital cities
first thing first we are going to visit the main attraction which means this castle behind me, Ljubljana Castle
we have 12 minutes walk. Ljubljana castle is standing on top of a hill above the town centre
this is quite a steep we are kind of climbing up there is a funicular too but we chose to walk
it feels so hot I mean it is hot
which way
Google says this way.Okay i think this is the funicular and it is coming up
if you don't like walking don't worry there is a car park here you can drive
2020, whenever you want to go inside and visit any kind of attraction you should wear masks
there is no entrance fee for visiting the castle courtyard
but if you want to see more you need to buy a ticket which costs 10 euros if you
also want to use the funicular you can buy a combined ticket and it will cost 13 euros
this castle dates back to the 12th century however, it was rebuilt in the 16th century
after it was destroyed by an earthquake. there are exhibitions and museums inside the castle
walking around the castle is fun especially visiting this room which is the museum of Puppetry.
Is there anyone here who doesn't like puppet shows?
We are going to the tower
by climbing these stairs we are going to the top of the watchtower
where we are rewarded with the best view of Ljubljana
oh actually there is a flea market here we are going to check it out
thank you I actually bought some cherries
I didn't want to buy anything but cherries were so appealing
Ljubljana is very beautiful and it is famous for its architecture, the cute old town
and the picturesque bridges. Each bridge has its own character, for instance
this is a romantic one and as you can see there are many love locks here. I know these glasses
are really safe to walk on but when I walk on them, I feel the vibration it just feel weird
now we are going to check out the dragon bridge the most famous bridge in this city
the symbol of this city is a dragon
and visiting the dragon bridge is a must-do when you are in Ljubljana
to be honest, all the bridges here are beautiful I think this is beautiful but there are other better
today is about eastern European food and we came to one of the good restaurants in the city
actually, I just read a lot of reviews and this one was recommended I want to just try this meat roll
before everything
it tastes really good and also the bread is good
it's a bit oily the oil of the meat you can feel the texture on the bread
I love it, the salad is cheese it's so good now I want to finish my food
we want to take a boat tour but we can't find anybody to buy a ticket
and the last one is like in 20 minutes
apparently we should go on the boat and we can buy a ticket on the boat
hello can we enter? yes
hello hello
we have the whole boat for ourselves it's just for us
on the boat, we made the new friend, the captain of our wooden boat
he told us that this year his clients mostly tourists dropped by 90 per cent due to the pandemic
he was positive, hoping that this situation would get better in the next year
By taking the boat tour we visited other parts of the city
and saw Ljubljana from a different angle we learned more about the local's life and this beautiful city
we are back and it's the end of our voat tour
and end of this video. tomorrow we are going to Bled and we are exploring that area
Stay tuned
