The central square of Ljubljana and a place with rich history, dating back to the Roman city of Emona where the area was the site of a burial ground.

Pretty and renewed part of the city . Popular drinking place for youngsters at night. There's also a "club" nearby and if you're hungry look for Frks. Chicken burger ftw!
