You're standing at the Dragon Bridge in Ljubljana, or Zmajski most in Slovenian. It crosses the Ljubljanica River, just north of the Central Market. Start with the four corners. Each one has a big dragon on a tall pedestal, made of sheet copper. These dragons have become the symbol of the city. Look a little closer and you'll spot sixteen smaller dragons along the bridge too.
