On foot or by bicycle, visit its historic center, also known as Stare Miastro, full of cobbled streets and buildings with pastel-colored paintings that make it very pleasant. One place to go is Preseren Square, the most famous in the city and located by the river. In it is the Franciscan Church of the Annunciation, characterized by its pink facade that makes it quickly identify. Right in front we find the statue of the French poet Preseren. The curiosity of this stature is that the poet appears together with his wife, who is naked. At the time it was highly criticized for what came to be dressed daily.
