Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia

Ljubljana, the capital of Slovenia, was originally a Roman settlement called Emona, founded over 2,000 years ago. Archaeological remains can still be seen around the city. Perched on a hill above the city is Ljubljana Castle of medieval origins (pictured on this card). The dragon is the symbol of Ljubljana — you’ll find dragon motifs all over the city—most famously on the iconic Dragon Bridge.
