The Karst Ham
The Slovenian Karst is a very special, lyrical landscape, spreading over the south-western part of the country near the border with Italy. It is the meeting place of many special regional features of Slovenia. The immense Nanos plateau and the distant Carnic ridges to the north indicate a passage to the Alps; low hills to the east and south indicate its closeness to the sea; and the openness of the sky towards the west gives a hint of the Friulian Marches extending deep into Italy. This region is also home to strong winds like the Bora, which blows briskly from the cold Alps towards the warm Mediterranean, and gives the distinct taste to the Karst dry-cured ham – pršut. The Karst is simply fantastic. The strong winds have sculpted…

Ljubljana
Ljubljana is the political and cultural heart of the Slovenian nation. It is an important European commercial, business, exhibition and congressional centre as well as the transport, science and education centre of Slovenia. A people-friendly city As its inhabitants and numerous visitors will tell you, Ljubljana is, indeed, a people-friendly city. Categorised as a medium-sized European city, it offers everything a metropolis does yet preserves its small-town friendliness. Its geographical position in the centre of Europe has determined Ljubljana as a natural meeting place for merchants and soldiers as well as - and more than once - peacemakers. The victors of the Napoleonic wars selected this peaceful city as the site of the Holy Alliance congress, which in 1821 sealed the European political geography for years to come. The old…

First World War itineraries
The south-western front of the First World War, which was held on the border between Italy and Austro-Hungary, has plunged many European nations into the turmoil of battle and had a terrible impact on our region, too. After almost a century a dense network of forest paths, military roads, the remains of rail tracks, as well as trenches, caverns, forts, strategic artillery positions and cemeteries remind us of battlefields that have extended from the Alpine Ortler to the Adriatic Sea. Some thirty years ago a group of enthusiasts, who later on established the “Dolomitenfreunde” association, decided to restore all former military paths that led across the battlefields of the First World War and represented a division between European nations. Today, these roads and paths bring European nations closer together.…
Grado
Grado is a historic seaside town located on a lagoon island along Italy's north-east Adriatic coast, in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region. The town, which has a population of 9,000, is in the Province of Gorizia and is very near the head of the Adriatic Sea. It is frequently described as a northern relative to Venice; at one time it was the more important of the two towns. Like Venice, Grado was populated as the inhabitants of mainland Roman settlements fled into the lagoons to escape successive invasions. After the sixth-century fall of the Roman city of Aquileia, an important early centre of Christianity, Grado became the seat of the Patriarch or Archbishop who was reponsible for the Adriatic lagoon islands and for Istria. After various fallings-out, including an occasion…
Cividale del Friuli
Defended on the bank of the Natisone River, Cividale del Friuli has developed and maintained in the centuries a noble and stern print as one vital capital of strategic importance, marked and enriched by the passage of foreign people: Longobardi and Franchi. We leave therefore to the discovery of the city crossing the Natisone river on the Bridge of the Devil . Let's go therefore to the discovery of the city beginning from the heart of the historical center, piazza del Duomo. The look is immediately captured by the imposing Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta, whose luminous facade in white stone bears the clear signs of its moments of building. The building has been in fact constructed between XV and XVIII century, in Venetian Ghotic style. The majestic greateness…
Aquileia
Aquileia was founded by the Romans as a military colony in 181 BC He was first bulwark against the invasion of the Barbarians and the departure point for expeditions and military conquests.

Teran Wine
Teran, the fiery red thick wine, is one of the most important products of the Karst soil, also known as “terra rossa” or “jerina”. Teran, a genuine Slovenian wine with desig- nated origin, is produced from Refosco vine grapes. The medicinal features of teran are the result of its numerous mineral substances and lactic acids, but it is also known for its distinctive aroma which resembles the scent of wild berries. Teran is a young wine of full taste; with maturing, its characteristics are completely changed and gradually become more similar to red wines from around the world - such wine is called TERANTON. The kind of teran that is made from the best grapes, suitable for wine of superior quality, is known as the “izbrani teran PTP” (selected…

Our children had a great time in finding the WW1 metal at the trenches nearby. We have to thank Francesca and Federico for helping them.…

Postojnska Caves
Beneath the Postojna Cave Park's surface lies a wonderful subterranean world abundant with unusual sculptures and animals.
