Ljubljana is home to the largest Christmas tree in Slovenia. It was erected in Prešeren Square, donated by Bežigrajan and is 18 meters high, weighing 4.5 tons and decorated with about ten kilometers of light. It is a real attraction for locals and foreign tourists alike. The 800-year New Year’s decoration, entitled Cycle, is a retrospective of the late work of the late author Drag Modic, who is also the author of this year’s sculptures and primary units, and was erected by his son Urban Modic.

Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear Tas….yeah i posted last year … this year it’s a little differently decorated though
This is definitely not … these are the first posts about this year’s holidays
Yeah, well, yeah … well, this is from Ljubljana … you have a great memory, my dear friend
Wow, this is fantastic! It looks magical.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear Ellie…I’m glad you like it
In my city, the Christmas tree is much less luxurious
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear Vidocka….you need to know which capital city is SLO
Yes, of course I know that.
Then you probably understand why it’s the greatest, dear Vida
It’s a stunning sunset view. I also wish you a pleasant weekend.
I also wish you a nice weekend, dear Vidocka
This is one massive decoration. The designer was extremely talented.
Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear friend…..I’m glad you like it
Such a beautiful tree, and sooooo big indeed lol.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear friend…it’s really huge
How beautiful. I think I remember this tree, not the same picture. But you shared this tree with us last year right? It surely is wonderful. We have one that the city decorates, but it is nothing like this. Excellent!
Guess what I saw last night on my drive home. A tiny four door sedan had a real Christmas tree on the top of their car. They were not just transporting it, it was standing erect, full of lit lights! I started laughing, it was so funny.
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear Kim…maybe i shared i dont remember … surely it wasnt the same because this year is the biggest so far … what the cities are competing with each other because it will be the largest and most illuminated
I think you did, it was either you or Ileana. I bet you had fun, and you took a great photo. If it is a competition I hope it is the largest, and brightest. Wonderful.
It is the largest in size and also has the most lights
That must have been really interesting and funny …. well, it didn’t blow him away … what do all people remember
They had so many straps on that thing, all with lights as well. I was shocked they could get it to stand up. I bet they didnt go anywhere very fast. lol You know they had to have a since of humor for sure.
They had a little fun and it was just that they were smart enough
wonderful, you framed this picture very well. Were you there when they lit the tree for the start of the season? Is this near the square you posted before?
Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear friend….yeah i was there when the lights came on … this is taken close up
that sounds like it was a lot of fun!!!
It was fun, it was just too crowded … the city center was easily blocked
i understand that – I stay away from downtown Washington DC when they are lighting the christmas tree.
way too many people
I took the city bus to the center
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear friend….I’m glad you like it
Very beautiful. Congratulations

The tree looks like the head of a missile. It looks like they will be sending the Christmas tree to Melania. Go, Slovenia!
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear friend….we won’t send it to Melania because we don’t like her
Melania and Donald do not sleep in the same room. Can you believe it????
You can … but who’s going to sleep with that old grandfather
Melania is more clever than it seems
I don’t like it and there are many of us, dear friend
One giant tree, it must light up the whole city I guess
Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear Dawn….
What a gigantic but still very lovely tree… I wish I was there to see it in person although I hope I would be dazzled and not blinded by all those lights…
Thanks for viewing and kind comment, my friend….come visit and you will see a really beautiful Ljubljana
that thing is huge! it looks like it is three stories
Thanks for watching and kind comment, dear friend….it’s really huge … they also had a problem bringing him downtown
moving that badboy is a nontrivial effort
There were a lot of problems
if they had to make even one turn, that’s a dealbreaker…
Probably yes indeed, my friend
Well lit tree that one There seems to be a competition the world over to have the tallest Christmas tree.
Thank you for your visit and nice comment, dear Grace….
A beautiful tree you have shared.
Thanks for viewing and a friendly comment, dear Carol….I’m glad you like it
