The brand-new Rough Guide to Slovenia is the definitive handbook to one of Europe's smallest, yet most beguiling nations. The northernmost republic of the former Yugoslavia, straddles central Europe and the Balkans, and is said to be the greenest country on the continent. There's a wealth of things to see and do. The guide covers the country in all the detail it deserves, with as much attention to the capital Ljubljana's youthful culture and Baroque and Hapsburg architecture as to the stunning cave network at Postojna, the wilds of the Julian Alps and the charms of the Istrian coastline. There are maps and plans throughout and a full-colour introductory section listing the author's favourite 'things not to miss'. The contexts section includes informed background on Slovenian history, folklore, music and wildlife.
