You can learn a lot about it in Tolmin Museum, but the biggest historical mark here was left by the First World War. Kobarid Museum will take you back in that dark period and you can check the trenches yourself on the Walk of Peace. Pay a visit to the memorial church of the Holy Spirit in Javorca and Italian Charnel House in Kobarid. In the town of Idrija, just 45 kilometers from Tolmin, you can visit Idrija Museum and former Mercury Mine, once second largest in the world. Do not miss to visit the unique Franja Partisan Hospital from the second world war. Soča Valley is a monument of mother nature. It is often called The Land of Living Water. The Valley of Festivals Soča Valley made its own brand Soča Festivalley because of the number of festivals in the region. Slovenia's most known music event is Metaldays that is shortly followed by Punk Rock Holiday, Overjam Reggae Festival and Sajeta Creative Camp. Its main sports events are Soča Outdoor Festival and a monthly Hiking Festival in autum. A Marble Trout Festival and Kobarid Dumplings Festival prove that Soča Valley is also rich in culinary. Trips in Slovenia Slovenia is a small country so it is not too far to visit other towns and sights. Slovenia's main tourist attractions would be Postojna Cave, Škocjan Caves Park, Lipica Horse Farm and Lakes Bled and Bohinj (use of autotrain recommended). The capital of Slovenia Ljubljana with its attractions is not to be missed. Slovenian coast is also not far away and world famous Venice is just 180 kilometers from our valley.
