Introduction to Maribor, Slovenia
Maribor is the second largest city in Slovenia, located in the northeast of the country on the banks of the Drava River, next to the Austrian border. As the economic and cultural center of the Styrian region, the city is known for its long history, wine tradition and beautiful nature.
History and cultural heritage
Maribor has a history of more than 800 years, and the old town retains medieval buildings such as Maribor Castle, the Gothic town hall and Renaissance houses. The most famous landmark in the center of the city is the "Old Vine" on the banks of the Drava River, a 400-year-old vine certified by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's oldest vine that still produces wine.
Nature and Tourism
The city is backed by the vine-growing hills of the Pohorie Mountains, which are good for skiing in winter and hiking in summer. The Rendava International Ice Sculpture Festival in January and the traditional Wine Festival in June attract large numbers of visitors. Maribor is also home to one of Slovenia's major universities and a vibrant student life.
Economy and Transportation
As an important industrial center, Maribor is known for automobile manufacturing (Renault plant), electrical equipment and food processing. Conveniently located with an international airport, rail hub and highway network, about 130 km from the capital Ljubljana, it is an ideal base for exploring eastern Slovenia and the Austrian border region.
