Visitors to Ljubljana with an eye for design and architecture cannot help but notice the striking buildings, bridges, and urban design of Ljubljana's genius loci, Modernist mystic architect Jože Plečnik. This episodes provides a self-guided walking tour through the city center that lasts around one hour--a perfect introduction to the "eternal" architect's work in the heart of the city. Your guide and the podcast host, Noah, wrote his doctoral thesis on Plečnik, so you're in good hands!

-the monument to Napoleon

-the National and University Library

-Vega Street

-Star Park

-Prešeren Square

-The Triple Bridge

-the Ljubljanica River embankment and bridges

-Tržnice Market
