Why Tkalciceva Street matters
This lively strip runs along a former stream that once marked the border between two medieval settlements on the hill. Today it is lined with terraces, bars and small shops, and is one of the busiest evening spots in town. Come for a coffee in the afternoon or a drink after dark, and notice the small houses squeezed along the slope.
Talking points
