This is the waterside view of Ljubljana Market as seen from the Dragon Bridge towards the Triple Bridge (Tromostovje). It is a beautiful piece of architecture designed by Jože Plečnik, the architect whose work can be seen in Vienna, Prague, Ljubljana and many other places all over Slovenia and beyond (my only reader will know what I mean if I say Plečnik is sort of a Slovenian version of Charles Rennie Mackintosh).
The Market is a good place to visit not only for its architecture (which the locals hardly notice) but also because one can almost always get fresh fruit and veggies in the open stalls as well as meat, fish, dairy products, pastry, herbs, spices, nuts, honey and other bee products and many other things, including souvenirs and lots of cheap tat in the colonnades.
I visit the Market almost every Saturday. I quite enjoy browsing through various kinds of fruits and greenery throughout the place but usually buy goods from the few vendors I know and trust.
