An only ten minutes' walk from the historical city centre of Ljubljana brings you to a renovated Ljubljanica river embankment landscaped as a park. The park's name, Špica, translates as 'pointed tip' and refers to the embankment's pointed shape. In the past, Špica was a town beach. Due to its pleasant green surroundings and a large area paved with wood, it still attracts numerous residents and visitors wanting to bask in the sun on fine weather days.
Next to Špica, a new 38-metre long bridge referred to as Hladnik's Footbridge was constructed in 2009. The bridge connects the city with a green suburban area, the location of the Ljubljana Botanic Garden. The bridge, with its super-lightweight structure, is reserved for pedestrians and cyclists.

The oldest pizzeria in Ljubljana, still with vintage touch!
Check also the names of the pizzas :), very unique.
Parma's pizzas are smaller but very tasty and if you will order blueberry juice along you will not be recognized as tourist :)...blueberry juice is actually a blueberry syrup with water but reminds the locals of Yugolsav times.
