Maribor, Slovenia's second-largest city, feels cozy and provincial, but looks can be deceiving. Its young, cosmopolitan university population keeps the town lively year-round, and the city's emphasis on promoting the arts resulted in Maribor being named the European Capital of Culture in 2012. Travelers will enjoy strolling the pedestrian-only streets of the historic Old Town, located on the picturesque Drava River. The hills and valleys around the city are known the world over for challenging hiking trails as well as expansive vineyards. Although Maribor is the center of a fertile region specializing in grape and apple growing, it is also one of the largest industrial cities in Slovenia.
An inspiring combination of Slovenia`s largest cities; the capital Ljubljana (known for its university population and green spaces - including expansive Tivoli Park) and beautiful, provincial Maribor (a city set amid wine region hills on the Drava River), admiring the dreamy scenery from the train!
