Jeruzalem Slovenija

Here, time flows differently

“A land as beautiful as from a pleasant dream—that homeland of mine down there…” wrote Franc Ksaver Meško a hundred years ago, one of the notable figures with roots in our region. We are part of Prlekija, a land of warm, open people; we know how to live, to rejoice, and to weep when needed. We are heartfelt and sociable, born with a sense of humor—and we gladly wish others well, too.

A hundred wine-covered hills, with poplars—here we call them palms—hamlets and solitary houses, an occasional little church, and former manor houses with wine cellars.

Experience nature with birdsong, lively voices along the Drava River, and the song of the klopotec rattles in the vineyards.

The most interesting and most visited tourist route is the wine road, whose magical panorama is crowned by Jeruzalem. Along it you can visit numerous winemakers and taste a variety of wines; among them, the traditional and well-established variety Šipon holds a special reputation. It is joined by many other varieties, both international and local: Laški Rizling, Sauvignon, Riesling, Chardonnay, Traminec, Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, Blaufränkisch … Here, wines grow and mature for every taste in the world!
