Dragon Bridge (1900-1901).
Unlike elsewhere, you can find the name of the architect written on most of the signboards here.

In case you don’t want to hang them on the wires, find a spot on the sculptures instead.

Ljubljana may not have many world famous tourist atrractions, but keep your eyes open and you’ll see lots of interesting things like the many statues and artwork.. Not quite sure what to make of this one..

If you have a pair of sneakers to spare, why not throw them up in the air and see if it catches on the wire.. Not sure what they symbolise though.

Today is also All Souls Day.. Typically, we would spend the morning visiting the graves of my grandparents, aunties and uncles who have since passed on.. As we are so far away from home this year, we did it in our little way at the Church of St Vitus.
