Today is a perfect day to do precisely what you want. So, what will it be?

In Slovenian history, there were only two operational trolleybuses: in Piran and Ljubljana. On this day, in 1909, Piran received the first trolleybus to run on the approximately 5-kilometre-long line between Piran's Tartini Square and the railway station in present-day Lucija.

Can you order coffee in sign language? In Slovenia, you can visit a mountain hut where the deaf staff will kindly serve you, and there you can learn how to order your favourite drink in sign language.

When was the last time you ran barefoot on freshly mowed grass? Today Bilbo and Frodo celebrate their birthdays which makes it the day of the Hobbits, the famous heroes from the works of John Ronald Roel Tolkien. Take off your shoes and go barefoot into the unknown.

Leave me alone and in peace! May today be a day of peace without stress and annoying people. Today, be a pillar of serenity yourself and pay it forward.

Exactly one year ago, Slovenia cheered loudly for its exceptional cyclists, who then brought the world competition to their knees at the 107th edition of the Tour de France cycling race. 21-year-old Slovenian Tadej Pogačar celebrated the victory, and the second place went to Slovenian ace Primož Roglič.

Have you ever wanted to jump from the second tallest ski jumping hill in the world?

The spectacular flight is 566 meters long, and you will reach a speed of 90 km / h in just a few seconds. Do you dare?

"Bon Appetit!" This is the official theme of this year's European Heritage Days, which will take place between September 25 and October 9, 2021.

Have at least one traditional meal today.

On September 17 2017, in the nail-biting final fight of Eurobasket in Istanbul, the Slovenian national basketball team defeated Serbia 93:85 and became the European champion.
