    In the very center (POIs within walking distance of each other):

    • Dragon bridge
    • Butchers' bridge
    • Tromostovje (3 bridges over the river Ljubljanica)
    • Cobblers' bridge
    • Prešeren square
    • Congress square
    • Pogačar square
    • Town square

    Near the center (within walking distance but takes a bit more time):

    • Museum of National History
    • Museum of Modern Art
    • the National Gallery (^ these 3 are very close to each other)
    • the Ljubljana Castle (absolute must-visit)
    • Prule (a nice quick stroll along the Ljubljanica from the center)
    • University of Ljubljana botanical gardens (just across the river from Prule)
    • Park Tivoli
    • Rožnik (a hill above Park Tivoli, ain't much but it's a nice walk)
    • Republic square (if you're into brutalism, there's two Big Beautiful Brutalist Buildings on a Big Beatiful Brutalist square)

      Thank you, I like to plan trips. I will never be able to make 99,9% of them, but Slovenia is not that imposible

        All of the former Yugoslavia rules so much. It's very cheap, the people are great, the food is great, and it isn't that touristy yet.

        no problem comrade! Ljubljana is a rather small city and there isn't much to see outside of it's center but it makes for a great quick and affordable trip. if you want to see even more of Slovenia I'd recommend Maribor, Murska Sobota and Nova Gorica/Gorizia or more rural sites like Logarska dolina or Triglav (the tallest peak in former Yugoslavia) if you're into mountains.

          The plan was to sleep in Ljubljana and make daytrips from there

            I did this a few years ago and it was fantastic. Ljubljana is a great hub, and there's buses to pretty much everywhere you'd want to go in Slovenia. Definitely check out Vintgar Gorge too, which is near Lake Bled and is a gorgeous river running through a gorge you can hike in.
