Ljubljanski grad (Ljubljana Castle)
Ljubljanski grad (Ljubljana Castle) Review
Ljubljana's hilltop castle affords magnificent views over the river and the Old Town's terra-cotta rooftops, spires, and green cupolas. On a clear day, the distant Julian Alps are a dramatic backdrop. The castle walls date from the early 16th century, although the tower was added in the mid-19th century. The surrounding park was landscaped by Plecnik in the 1930s.
