    Slovenia as a package is unbeatable. In an area the size of London, you can go from the Venitian architecture of the Adriatic coast to something that looks like Swizerland around Bled and Maribor, with the littite Vienna of Ljubljana in between.

    I was in Ljubljana a few weeks ago. Beautiful little city!!!! I said the Rosary in the pink church. I was buying some Rosary beads for some friends back home and the woman told me they were saying the Rosary that night at 6:30, so I came back then and had a very awesome experience. It was in Slovenian, but I did my best to follow.

    How can the city of Ljubljana 🇸🇮 not be beautiful, and it is the city where UEFA President Aleksandar Teševrin was born, but what is really surprising is why most of the city’s streets are empty of residents? Although it is near Germany, it witnesses modest tourist traffic. Is this mainly due to the city system or due to the lack of knowledge of foreign tourists about the country of Slovenia, perhaps? In any case, I hope it will increase the number of your channel subscribers and friends who visit the city. Good luck, bro. 👋

    Hi Ben, thanks for another awesome video of Ljubljana Slovenia. The waterways and all of the beautiful European Architecture are always a treat to see. As always, the Drone footage and music really added a lot of character to the video.
    I would have to pick the University Building as my favorite. The ornate Roof I thought really brought the building to life.
    The front Alter area of that Pink Church was truly beautiful. I liked the chandelier that had the light covers in the shape of flowers.
    One pretty consistent thing I notice from your videos in Europe, is the Square Stone Market squares and streets. I wonder how in the world they lay all of those so precisely? It really adds a lot of character to the area.
    Thanks for the short clip of next weeks video as well.

      Thanks again as always Ben. It really is such a pleasant city, glad you appreciated the drone footage. I loved some of the shots I got.
      Funnily enough, when I got up closer to the university building, I picked that too. The symmetry up close from the fountain looked incredible.
      Ha good question, though I'm not so sure!
      Appreciate the support and feedback as always. See you next Sunday (or perhaps sooner as I have a little surprise video lined up) 😁

    After having visited both Wroclaw, Gdansk and Poznan in Poland, Ljubljana looks a little "grey". Nice city of course, but for me it doesn't "pop" as much. How are the Slovenian people - and the food - compared to Poland? Hope your channel grows steady, Ben!

    • @BenRobson123
      @BenRobson123  2 месяца назад +1

      I suppose most cities may seem a little more subtle in colour in comparison to Polish Old Towns. Having said that, the city was still beautiful and green, especially in the sunshine. Plenty colour in the old town and especially on the riverside, but perhaps not as bold colours as seen in Poland :)
      If I'm honest, I ate out a few times but don't think I ate much local food if I remember rightly. Thank you for the comment 😊

      1. Most Slovenians don't care about Melania Trump one way or the other.
      2. There's no statue of her in Ljubljana (there *is* one in her hometown of Sevnica, but most people see it more as a joke than anything)
      3. Slovenia does *not* have the same flag as Russia. It's like saying that Croatia has the same flag as the Netherlands, or Austria has the same flag as Latvia, or that the Netherlands and Luxembourg have the same flag, or Tunisia and Turkey, Poland and Monaco, Senegal and Mali, Singapore and Indonesia, etc. Plenty of flags around the world share similarities, but that doesn’t make them identical.
