Slovenia, one of Europe’s smallest nations, boasts an extraordinary diversity of landscapes in a relatively small territory. It’s the only country in Europe that has the Alps, the Mediterranean, the Pannonian Plain and the Karst. In 2011 the Republic of Slovenia will be celebrating 20 years since its declaration of national independence.
Pride in the achievements of independent Slovenia will also be reflected during 2011 in the tourism sector: special events, adoption of new visions for development and, no less importantly, fun and socializing with friends of Slovenia from all over the world.
The year-long activities will seek to include the widest public possible to commemorate the historic events that led to the country’s independence and the progress it has made in the past 20 years. The biggest gathering in Slovenian territory is planned for early July.
