Slovenia
With Eastern Europe's popularity growing by leaps and bounds, Slovenia is now enjoying a newfound moment in the tourism spotlight. Chock full of the same medieval towns and quaint villages that made the Czech Republic – namely Prague – a household name, Slovenia’s charms can be enjoyed for a fraction of the price of its trail-blazing predecessor and arguably offer more value to boot. Sharing borders with Austria, Croatia, Hungary, Italy, and the Adriatic Sea, activities like winemaking are popular in Slovenian shore towns, while further north, Lake Bled, a glacial water body situated in the Alps, is a popular winter sports destination. A trip to the nation’s capital of Ljubljana reveals ornate row houses, picturesque rivers, and iconic castles and bridges, and is an easy transfer from many European airports. Though Slovenia was one of the first Eastern European countries to adopt the Euro, their hesitance to adapt to modern times has made its Venetian-era squares and tiny Alpine cities a fantastic bargain for the buck.
