Interested in Slovenia's industrial heritage? Visit Technical Museum of Slovenia

Why wouldn't we visit the Technical Museum of Slovenia? It has been ages since I was there and my two boys have not been there either.

Hiking trio close to Ljubljana: Katarina, St. Jakob, Grmada

I could have gone on and on easily to yet another rolling hill ahead, and I whole-heartedly encourage you to do so; if you’re taking a bus, you can easily descend directly to Polhov Gradec and take a bus back to Ljubljana from there.
