Photos taken from Castle Hill in Ljubljana
Ljubljana's Castle on Castle Hill.
From the tower, you can see all
of Ljubljana and the
surrounding hills -- if you are fortunate enough to get there on a sunny
day.
Trnovo with
Trnovska Cerkev (Trnovo Church) in front. This is where
France Prešeren
met Primičova Julija (his big love). Barje is the plains area in
the back of the photo.
Šmarna Gora is the hill in the back. On the right is Šmarna Gora and Grmada on the left.
Poljane with St. Jozef Church in the foreground, Ljubljanica (the river) and Zasavsko hribovje, the hills in the background.
Nebotičnik -- once, the highest building in Ljubljana, but not any longer. A beautiful view
from up there. In the background is Rožnik,
the hill, and a big building that houses the ice arena and basketball
courts. To the left of it (red roof) is
Cekinov Grad (Cekin Castle).
Resljeva Street -- In the bottom of the photo is one of Ljubljana's
open market places where people sell the
products from their gardens and fields. People come from villages
all around the city to sell their crops to Ljubljanans.
