This is a beautiful square with the famous three bridges over the Ljubljanica river below the castle of the city. It is a buzzy place and extremely elegant with many cosy and chic bars and cafes to visit alongside the river.

Everything you could want. Bridges galore, including the glass decked Butcher's Bridge, the Dragon Bridge, and others. Practicalities at the square include the Ljubljana Central Pharmacy for your medical needs, and... More

This is a lovely old town square at the end of the Triple Bridge. Perfectly located to see the rest of the old town (go across the bridge to the town hall) and to get to more modern shops, fast-food restaurants etc. Very nicely lit at night with a great atmosphere.

Formally a meeting place for several roads in front of one of the old entrance gates to the city, and a public square since Ljubljanas original defensive walls were torn down in the middle of the 19th century, this is one of the citys most important landmarks. Named after Slovenias national poet France Prešeren

The square is surounded by lots of shops, clothes and places to eat and have a drink. However on Sundays most of the shops are closed except for few places that you can eat and drink. Hardly bars stay open very late, at midnight they were closing.

Lot of street performers are here, and this square, due to it's size is often a starting point for many cultural events. The square is dominated by a... More
