Ljubljana’s Central Market perfectly mirrors the exceptional culinary diversity and richness of Slovenia. On the walk, you will visit practically every Slovenian region as you sample fresh, local produce, products, and dishes from selected vendors: one of Slovenia’s best prosciuttos, homemade cheese (a popular choice from a famous family-run cheese dairy), freshly harvested vegetables from the gardens of Ljubljana, authentic Slovenian honey from untouched forests, one of the country’s most popular desserts, richly flavoured pumpkin seed oil, and more.
Walking through the market – also known as the beating heart of the city – you will stop for tastings at a total of seven culinary stops, starting with a glass of the finest sparkling wine.
Along the way you will learn the stories behind the abundantly stocked stalls and counters, and gain a thorough insight into the past and present culinary habits of the people of Ljubljana, as well as Slovenians in general.
Visit the vendors, have a chat with them, shop for local products, and most of all – enjoy the flavours! It’s the best way you can contribute to the life of the market – the beating heart of the city.
