Old Town Ljubljana

 

Spent the day wandering around the Old Town of Ljubljana (pronounced You-BLEE-Anna).  The photo above is an image of one of four large bronze dragons that adorn the “Dragon Bridge.”  The dragon is a symbol of the city.  Legend has it that Jason and the Argonauts of Greek mythology founded the city after slaying a dragon here.
