About
Szybkie fakty: Carved from white Carrara marble, the fountain features four life-sized river gods symbolizing rivers of the region, creating an impressive display that seems to flow with dynamic energy. Visitors often pause to admire the intricate baroque style and listen to the soothing sound of water that brings an enchanting atmosphere to the square.
Najważniejsze atrakcje: The fountain features four figures representing the rivers Ljubljanica, Sava, Krka, and Kolpa, sculpted with such detail that you can see tiny fish and birds playing among them. Every year on the spring equinox, locals celebrate by gathering around to watch the sunrise light up the fountain's waters, creating dazzling reflections that dance like fire.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, cobblestones around the square are uneven.
- Stand on the Triple Bridge for a framed shot including the river and Ljubljana Castle in the background.
- Visit right after sunrise to avoid tour groups and get the best light on the sculptures.
- Respect signage and do not climb onto the fountain, the basin and figures are fragile.
