[LJUBLJANA] - kako jo vidijo drugi/How others see it

[pijanec]

Yeah, new law officialy forbid camping on any land if you don't ask owner. But in the practice you can camp everywhere and no one care. An old man should brought you wine, not apples.

[AlbertZ]

I think the law is very West-European.. It's good, although, because many campers (especially anglers) leave a lot of rubbish behind in Hungary, what's never cleared. Be calm, we haven't left any litter. We are some of the "good" campers.

[pijanec]

I think in France you can still camp anywhere you want. But Slovenia is an empty land so plenty of free space for campers. In general,
we didn't have problems with litters maybe because there aren't a lot of tourists camping here.

Here is an article about Ljubljana at www.viamichelin.com of 6 November 2008. It's in French, and there are also nice pictures. Here is the link:

I don't know if there's an English version.

it's a nice article but it's funny because at picture 13 is written la bibliothèque nationale (NUK) but is a photo of prešeren square

[Rijeka]

Yes, they've made some mistakes... And if I recall my school literature classes well, Prešern's muse was named Julija, not Julja (as they put it)... By the way, the National library building is one of my favourites in Ljubljana. It's really great! Anyone knows some other important Plečnik's buildings around Slovenia?

Here are some of his greatest works, but there are many others..

NUK



Žale Cemetery



Ljubljana's Market



Triglav Insurance Building



Church in Šiška



Church in Prague



Zacherl Palace in Vienna

Mercator Poljanska na Dezeenu.

Kot kaže, so jim Ofis arhitekti precej všeč, ker ni to edina njihova zadeva, ki so jo objavili.

[Verso]

Prvič slišim, da bo tam Mercator.

[Struckar]

Na Poljanski?, če boš pogledal v thread od Ljubljane boš videl, da je tudi tam prilepljenih par slikc.

No. 5 Ljubljana, Slovenia

The queen of England recently visited this quirky capital city on a royal visit to Slovenia, where she was given a rare Lipizzaner horse. Ala Osmond of Exeter International called the city "a little Paris" with hints of Art Nouveau. It lies at the crossroads of the German, Latin and Slavic worlds and is a melting pot of culture. A two-bedroom apartment in the center of town will cost in the region of 200,000 euros ($258,000).

Zakon!

SLOVENIA'S LJUBLJANA FIRST OF THE TOP 10 MOST HONEST CITIES IN THE WORLD
Dec 09, 08 | 10:43 am


Ljubljana garnered first place in the Top 10 Most Honest Cities in the World in an experiment carried out by journalists of Reader's Digest magazine. They chose a number of cities and "lost" 30 cell phones in each of them. Then they checked the nearest police stations and waited for calls from the "finders."

Would you keep a cell phone or a wallet if you happened to find one? Or would you hand it in at the police station? And how about the others? These are the questions that Reader's Digest asked. A survey did not seem to be the right way to find out, as people might not admit that they would keep the phone anyway, so the journalists decided to carry out this experiment. They made a selection of cities and capitals around the world and "lost" 30 cell phones in each of them. Then they checked the nearest police stations and waited to see if they got calls from the people who found them. According to the number of phones they managed to get back, they put together a list of the world's top ten most honest cities.

The winners are:

1. Ljubljana; in Ljubljana, 29 out of 30 lost cell phones were returned to their owners and only one changed ownership.
2. Toronto; in Toronto, 28 out of 30 lost cell phones were returned.
3. Seoul; in Seoul, 27 out of 30 lost cell phones were returned.
The other chosen cities placed in the following order: Stockholm, Mumbai, Manila, New York, Helsinki, Budapest and Warsaw.

Čuden stavek. Torej se družiš s kradljivci? Btw, to je bil eksperiment, ne anketa.
