Dragon Bridge is an iconic early 20th-century bridge over the Ljubljanica River, adorned with four imposing dragon statues at its corners. These dragons, symbols of Ljubljana, are said to wag their tails when a virgin crosses (though locals joke they're just waiting). The bridge's Art Nouveau design and green copper roof make it a striking sight. Visitors often stop to admire the dragons and take photos, making it a must-see landmark.
Don't miss

- Photograph the bridge from the riverbank to capture its full Art Nouveau elegance.
- Cross the bridge and look for the small dragon heads on the lampposts.
