TOP 6 experiences in Thermal Pannonian Slovenia<\/h1>\n

Ljubljana may be the present-day capital of Slovenia, but the nation\u2019s historical soul can be found in the towns and countryside of the east, where the Counts of Celje once competed with the House of Habsburg for regional supremacy, where Slovenia\u2019s second largest city Maribor was one of the major industrial centers of Yugoslavia, where Spa tourism first developed in the 19th century in La\u0161ko, where the noblemen of 2alec learned to cultivate some of the world\u2019s most prized hops.<\/p>\n

From the foothills of the Alps and Pohorje mountains in the north to Kozjansko Regional Park and the Posavje region along the Sava River in the south to Prekmurje (arguably the country’s friendliest and most unique region) in the far northeast Slovenia’s Pannonian region has a rich history, vibrant present and bright future. Outside of the ever-popular thermal spas, many of the fascinating sights are still well off the proverbial beaten path, making the region great for those looking to discover new things.<\/p>\n

Marvel at wine cellars 10 million years in the making<\/h2>\n

One of Slovenia’s most awe-inspiring attractions are the repnice wine cellars of the Bizeljsko area, which were only ‘discovered’ some two decades ago after over ten million years in the making. The foundation for these geological anomalies laid, quite literally,during the Miocene Epoch, when the Pannonian Sea began to retreat, leaving thick layers of flint stone that was subsequently dugin by locals.<\/p>\n
