Velike Lasce, the center of many cross roads

South of Turjak is Velike Lasce the center of a hilly, forest-covered land. The valleys around it are dotted with many small villages and hamlets.

Flowing through the valley from west to east is the Rašica River, which rushes down in a waterfall and disappears into a sinkhole near the village of Ponikve.

The town is a small local center which developed at the meeting point of roads leading from the Dobropolje Valley and the Bloke plateau to the Ljubljana – Kočevje main road.

Rašica is the birthplace of Primož Trubar, who published the first Slovene book in 1550. In addition to a translation of the catechism he also published an alphabet book.

So from here to there. Every were in Slovenia you can find many interesting things for every taste.
