This pocket-sized book offers an expert's guide to Slovenia, with 12 itineraries and excursions taking in the country's highlights for visitors. It used to be one of Europe's best-kept holiday secrets. For a while, political disruption deterred all but the most determined visitors. Now, though, Slovenia is no longer a secret. The country's popularity is burgeoning; drawn by its lush valleys, cave-studded mountains, thermal springs, an unspoilt coast, Triglav National Park and Slovenia's surprisingly vibrant capital, Ljubljana. The Insight Pocket Guide to Slovenia contains twelve attraction-packed itineraries for you to explore the country, centred on four regional bases. It also includes essays on history and culture, as well as leisure-time suggestions and an information section packed with essential addresses and numbers. It also includes dozens of full-colour photographs and maps, including a pull-out map that clearly shows all the itineraries.
