The city
City of about 13,000 people on the Italian border, built from 1948 after the peace treaty left Gorizia in Italy. It and Gorizia form a single urban area, joined by Trg Evrope square. Around it are the Kostanjevica Monastery, with the Bourbon tombs, the basilica of Sveta Gora and, in the Solkan suburb, the stone railway bridge over the Soča.

The local experience
A 17th-century Franciscan monastery on a hill above Nova Gorica, with the crypt where Charles X and other members of the Bourbon royal family are buried, a historic library and a collection of Bourbon roses.
Stone railway bridge over the Soča in Solkan, with an 85-meter arch — the largest arch in the world on a stone railway bridge. It is part of the Bohinj line, opened in 1906.
A hill of 682 meters north of Nova Gorica, with a pilgrimage basilica, a Franciscan monastery and a museum about the Isonzo battles. On clear days, the view reaches the Adriatic and the Alps.
Square in front of Nova Gorica railway station, split between Slovenia and Italy. The closed border used to pass through it after 1947; today you cross freely between the two towns.
