The place is situated in a peacefull valley, away from busy traffic streets. There are several objects from ancient time, like old mill, screw press, old rack waggons, agricultural implements....
It's an open air museum. All around are well preserved farm outbuildings. Double drying-frame is one of the sights of Slovenia. This one is altered into shelter for the night. (For low budged travellers)
I suggest not to drive on the main street. Drive passing the town Tržic. Tržic is an old town for centturires home of the shoemaking, tanning and blacksmith's trades.Follovwing the marks and the Map above, you'll reach lodging house Smuk
This is the wiev onto Zelenica - one of the ski centres in Slovenia.On the right side of the photo, you can see a ski lift. A good point of once a very popular ski center is that snow cover lasts till May.
If you come to Slovenia from Austria, you'll pass an international border crossing Ljubelj. This is the Slovene end of tunnel through Karavanke Mountains.On the left side of the photo, there is Zelenica, once very popular ski slope. Usually the snow last till May
Coming to Slovenija from Austria, you can choose the international border crossing Ljubelj in Karavanke MountainDriving on the road full of turnings towards Trzic, you'll pass a village Podljubelj, also worth to stop. Not far away is the Tominc Waterfall, in the vicinity of which mercury was excavated until 1902.
Idrija is a small town, but all the same, worth to see it. It is known upon its mine, upon lacemaking and also an inexhaustible treasure of natureIn this castle, there is a Museum, and it's hardly recomanded to visit it.
Zuzemberk castle was built in the 13th century on a rock of overhanging the Krka River.Actually, in Dolenjska region, there are many castles, but unfortunately many of them are ruins nowadays, and it's hard to believe, they'll be reconstruced in near future.
This monument is made of ancient tombstones.It was the parish priest's idea, to make such a monument - even more, he built it by himself. He's very interesting in history and he's looking for sights of ancient life there , all the time. Monument
