Top favorite castles in Slovenia of my choice

#100waysoftravel #falltrip Slovenia has plenty of castles in every town, here I shared the top favorite ones of my choice. 1. Castle Kamen (Grad Kamen) Take Radovljica - Tržič bus line from Ljubljana main bus station, then go for main bus station in Begunje with frequent connections to both Radovljica and Bled. is the nearest public bus stop to Castle Kamen. Free entrance. Above picturesque ruins of a castle of the Counts of Lambergh, great place to explore and place of mysteries. (Not crowded) 2. Brežice Castle Travel on the national railway company, Slovenske Zeleznice (SZ) to reach Brezice town from Ljubljana main train station to Brezice train station, it is a scenic train ride on the Bohinj railway, which connects the Alpine valleys of Bohinj and the Soča River. Entrance fee is required. One of the castle in town Brezice,which is my favorite. The construction remains since 1600s where original castle was probably constructed by Salzburgians in the 12`th century for administrative and defense purposes. The walls and ceilings are beautifully decorated by the centuries which you will feel touched upon viewing it. (Not crowded) 3. Ljubljana castle Travel to castle via walking or funicular from Ljubljana town. Suggest take funicular up single way and walk down from castle for different joy and experience of the trip. Castle is situated at hilltop, behind ancient walls, is a rich world of historical and cultural and art. Entrance fee is required for castle. Castle top has amazing city view and best for sunrise and sunset experience.

MILKA HOTEL

#fallishere Milka hotel is a very beautiful high end hotel with the most amazing view of the mountains and Lake Jasna at it's feet. It is the perfect spot to start your hikes into the mountains, admire the most pristine mountain river you have ever seen and discover the national park. Breakfast is copious and high quality. We chose the smallest room and it had a bathtub with a view of the mountains, truly a an experience to take a bath like that. Their soaps and extra's are very nice en high quality. The beds are to die for, really really good. *Some points of improvement*: the room was dusty when we arrived. As in dust from at least a week behind the bath. We requested an extra clean and that was arranged fast.

What a great place Slovenia was. I really liked it and it was brilliant and so beautiful. The food was truly wonderful and the people were great. It was not very expensive and I liked every moment of my trip. I would hands down fully recommend visiting the country and especially the capital city Ljubljana because it is one of the most pretty places I have ever been to!
