Review:

The earthquake in 1895 destroyed a monastery on the river, near the site of the Dragon Bridge. When the monastery was cleared the site became available for an outdoor market. In the early 1940s a two-story Renaissance building was designed by Jože Plecnik to hug the curve in the river. It houses a fish market and restaurant on the ground floor and specialty food shops above. In the adjacent square, there is a large covered market and an open-air market, selling a variety of fresh and dried food products, flowers, arts and crafts. On Fridays, between mid-March and October, Slovenian chefs demonstrate cooking in the Open Kitchen.

Central Market, Adamic-Lundrovo Nabrežje 6, 1000 Ljubljana
