Ljubljana Travel Guide
Slovenia
Ljubljana is Slovenia’s capital and a city of 272,220 people, located in the centre of the country. It serves as Slovenia’s main political and administrative centre, making it a useful base for exploring the country.
Most international visitors arrive through Ljubljana Jože Pučnik Airport (LJU), the airport serving the city. Ljubljana is inland, and there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so it is better suited to city and inland trips than a beach break.
