There are many cafes and pubs around. It's basicly center of capital so if you are there, there's everything you need. You can go shoping, eating or go for drinks. There is also live traditional music all the time. If you are lucky and have great weather there's nothing more beautiful in Ljubljana.
One thing you keep on wondering while there: why there are three bridges in one place?Nevertheless, this is what makes this place special.
Great architectural bridge to cross while enjoying the views of the river and square and take photo ops while on the bridge.
The views from the bridge are beautiful. the bridges are very small and adjacent to each other. The view of the town square and kanal/canal and the quay side shops is nice in the evenings.
This is s buzz area within old Ljubljana and always appeared busy, all attractions are nearby with loads of eating options
This is probably one of the most visited/photographed places in Ljubljana. The bridges are quite nice to see and as some have already mentioned, it is quite difficult to miss them when visiting the city. You'll only need like 20-30mins to see it all. Take your camera with you, this is the one place you want to have pictures of when going back home ;)
My wife and I enjoyed the sights of Lubljana and the way in which the happy atmosphere of the city extends over the river with the Triple Bridge which was full with happy locals and their familites.
Great photo opportunity! I love the Parisian style locks on the bridge over the Ljubljanica River, and the views of the bridge towards the castle; stunning at sunset. Walking streets with all the regular culprits; H&M, Zara, Lush, etc except the cobblestones add a little charm and the street itself is very wide, which I liked, we were not shoulder to shoulder. I am sure in the summer it is a different story but winter, just after New Years Eve, we had the best experience.
I found the triple bridge quite interesting - from an architectural point of view. It's just across the street from the Ljubljana Tourist Information office so it should definitely be on your list to visit. I do, however, wish there was a platform nearby so the bridge could be viewed from above, as I bet that's when you can really appreciate the architecture. If you're interested, I wrote more about the triple bridge and other works by architect Jože Plečnik here: http://www.ilovejourneys.com/trailing-the-architecture-of-one-of-ljubljanas-finest-joze-plecnik/
This is the heart of the old city, and the epicenter of all the foot traffic in the pedestrian zone. It is a definite must see!
