DEAR TRAVELER

Where to look for paradise today, if not in a remote and unspoiled countryside, where tranquillity, diversity and rich natural and cultural heritage are interlaced? Therefore, welcome to the heart of Bela krajina, where ancient Metlika is hidden between Gorjanci mountains and the Kolpa river. Let its rich history, culture and friendly people touch you. Namely, the Municipality of Metlika is a little land with many faces. Due to its remoteness, it is mysterious, unspoiled and pure, and its undulated space is full of magical nooks offering relaxation and entertainment. Despite being geographically remote, it had paved the way in many fields over a century ago. Even today, it can boast of cultural traditions, culinary specialties, and events, which cannot be found even in the most developed and wealthy places. White and tranquil in winter, it offers sightseeing tours of architectural and cultural heritage, and in full bloom in spring, it invites to hiking and biking trails, while in warm months, the Kolpa River, a green and clean beauty, enables you to cool down. It sparkles especially in its autumn colours, when its granaries and wine cellars are filled up. Local winemakers produce the wines that will please even the most demanding drinker, and delicious homemade food and hospitality will convene travellers to come and see us again and again.
