Prekmurje - the largest plain of Slovenia

Slovenia is a small but very diverse country that boasts beautiful karst regions, wonderful and vast caves, as well as many spas. This is largely due to its location between the Julian Alps and the Adriatic Sea. The capital of the country is Ljubljana, which is one of the smallest capitals in Europe, but it is characterized by unusual architecture and many monuments. The Prekmurje region is also worth paying attention to.

Slovenia is considered a country of many cultures, due to the fact that some regions of this small country were once considered an integral part of Austria, while others, especially the coastal ones, were part of Italy. The eastern regions belonged to Hungary. This is where mainly Jews and Roma lived. Slovenia is also known for many spas and SPA centers, such as Moravske Toplice, Terme Lendava, Terme Radenci.
