Festival vina in čokolade Podčetrtek.../ Festival wine and chocolate Podčetrtek...

Danes je bil dan rezerviran za Podčetrtek in Prvi festival vina in čokolade.
Odideva popoldan in tudi tokrat ni bil samo en postanek...prvi postanek samostan Olimje.
Do samostana in znamenitosti so odlične usmerjevalna table, tako da nimate kaj zgrešiti.
Pred samostanom so lepo urejena zelišča in tudi razlaga za blagodejne učinke. Super! Odideva še na drugo stran, v lekarno in cerkev. Lepe freske!! In tudi poroka nama ne uide...Par lepih čevljev sva pa videli...
Za podrobnejše informacije, lahko obiščete njihovo spletno stran TUKAJ.

Monastery Olimje

From behind


Stara lekarna /  Old pharmacy

Ko ugotoviš, da ti zdravilo raste na vrtu! / When you find out that the medicine
is growing in your backyard!  (respiratory system, metabolism, purifies the blood,
menstrual problems, inflammation of the stomach and intestines)




Strop v cerkvi / Ceiling in the church

Veliko vsega / A lot of everything



Sedaj pa čisto zares festival. Gneča je že bila ogromna pri športni dvorani, zato najdem prosto parkirno mesto na parkirišču za Orhidelijo.
Cena vstopnice je bila 5€ in v ceno je vštetih 7 kupončkov za vino ali čokolado. Kozarce za vino si lahko dobil ob plačilu konzumacije (5€) kar je bila super ideja.
Okoli vina se nisem veliko sukala, sem prišla bolj zaradi čokolade.
Edino kar sem pogrešala je bila voda in več stolov.
Razstavljalci so bili samo iz naše države in moram priznati, da še pred kratkim nisem vedela, da imamo v Sloveniji toliko čokoladnic in niti vseh še ni bilo tukaj.
Nekateri so imeli izvirne okuse, nekateri izvirni izgled in nekateri najlepše predstavitve. Če vam je kateri izdelek posebej všeč, kliknite na ime čokoladnice in vas bo popeljala na njihovo spletno stran, kjer si še lahko ogledate še ostale odlične izdelke...
Moj favorit? Ja vsi!! Itak!

ENGLISH VERSION:

Today was a day reserved for Podčetrtek and the first festival of wine and chocolate. 
We left in the afternoon and once again it wasn't only one stop ... first stop monastery. 
To the monastery and attractions are excellent steering boards, so you do not miss anything. 
In front of the monastery are nicely decorated herbs and an explanation of the beneficial effects. Super! We went inside the pharmacy and a church. Beautiful murals !! And we even saw a wedding... we saw a pair of nice shoes... 
For more information, you can visit their website HERE.


Now its really festival time. It was crouded at the sports hall, so I found a free parking space in the parking lot for Orhidelia. 
Ticket price was € 5 and the price includes 7 coupons for wine or chocolate. You could get wine glasses for consummation (€ 5) which was a great idea. 
I wasn't so into wine, I came for the chocolate. 
Exhibitors were only from our country and I must admit that until recently I didn't know that we have so much chocolate factories and even all weren't here. 
Some had original flavors, some the original appearance and some had the most beautiful presentations. If you like some particularly product, click on the name of chocolate and it will take you to their site where you can see other great products ... 
My favorite? Everything !! Of course!

Moji top 3 wellnessi v Sloveniji.../ My top 3 wellness in Slovenia

Ne maram klasike. Ne vračam se rada na iste kraje. Rada imam nove stvari. Imam velik problem s ploščicami. Sovražim modre ploščice! Tiste baby blue ploščice! In tisti beli plastični ležalniki. Za piko na i pa stene v barvi sladoleda Planica. Sem diva zaradi tega? Mogoče res!

Kaj želim s tem povedati? Spodaj našteti wellnessi niso klasika, nimajo modrih ploščic, plastičnih ležalnikov in sladolednih barv. In glede na to, da se ne vračam rada na iste kraje, me te savne vedno znova prepričajo, da se vrnem k njim. In mi nikoli ni žal...

Če ste ljubitelj/ica savn, lepih ploščic in arhitekturne drugačnosti (in ne, nisem arhitekt, samo opazim neklasiko), ali če želite koga presenetiti vam priporočam naslednje wellness centre po mojem okusu...


Vir: designboom, partisans-grotto-sauna-toronto-canada

RIMSKE TERME: v rimskih termah imate 4 savne. 2 parni, 1 infra in finska. Prav tako imate notranji hladni bazen in masažni bazen, ter zunaj whirpool. Med tednom žal ni tako veliko savna programov, ampak se sama ne sekiram preveč. Če slučajno kdaj naletite na katero gostjo, ki veselo vrtinči zrak zase in še pač za tiste, ki pridejo naknadno v savno...no to sem jaz. In vam zagotavljam, da ne boste do konca ostali na tretji klopi...saj do sedaj še niso. Na izbiro imate vedno vodo ali čaj.
In njihov bazen. Sama ga pojmujem kot arhitekturna umetnost. Tudi njihovi "skriti" masažni bazenčki so super. In lepa zelena barva ploščic! In kar je najlepše....tišina in mir. Tukaj se res vedno spočijem.
In ne spreglejte ugodnosti s Špar kartico 1+1! Za 4 urni skok v savno ali bazen so Rimske terme na prvem mestu!

WELLNESS ZALA: v Zali (Topolšica) pa imate 9 savn. 4 parne in 5 finskih. Znotraj imajo ogromen whirpool, zunaj malo manjši whirpool in kar najbolj zmaga- velik bazen! Vedno tudi zavijem eno nadstropje višje, v restavracijo Luna na njihove solatke. Še počitek in kavica na njihovi terasi s super razgledom. Pri njih lahko kupite samo celodnevno karto za samo 16€, med vikendi 2€ več.
Pri njih sem že tudi silvestrovala, tako da nisem imela problemov z izbiro obleke, prav tako sem hodila na savnanje za polno luno in so takrat odprti do polnoči. In super programi! In zelene ploščice ter stene brez ostrih robov. Ne najdem negativne točke. Zalo priporočam zelo!

WELLNESS ORHIDELIA:  v Orhideliji imate 5 savn in sicer 2 parni in 1 infra in 2 finski. V sklopu savn je še zunanji bazen, znotraj hladen bazen in večji whirpool. Njihovi programi...tam sem pa res skoraj umrla! Profesionalci, da jim ni para. Mislim, da sem 10 minut bila v hladnem bazenu. Po programu ti ponudijo čaj in sveže sadje. Koliko je počivališč ne vem, ker imajo dobesedno vsak kotiček narejen kot počivališče. Obvezna je pokušina njihovih tortic in sladoleda s 100% sadnim deležem! Spodnji bazen ima podvodno glasbo. Gosti so večinoma tujci. Cena za cel dan je 27,50€, vikend 35€. Ja splača se. Domov se vrneš miren in spočit, nikjer hrupa, samo tišina. Pred kratkim sem zasledila, da so imeli nekakšen turnir v programih, jaz pa nisem vedela za to! To mi je pa res žal! Za mir, prijetno utrujenost in prestiž je Orhidelia pravi naslov.

ENGLISH VERSION: 

I don't like the classics. I don't like to come back to the same places. I like new things. I have a big problem with tiles. I hate the blue tiles! Those baby blue tiles! And those white plastic chairs. For the cherry on the top walls in ice-cream colors. Am I a diva because of this? Maybe!

 What I want to say.... Wellness centers listed below are not classic, no blue tiles, plastic loungers and ice cream colors. And I don't like to come back to the same places, but this saunas / wellness always convince me to come back. And I never regret ...


 If you are a fan of sauna, beautiful tiles and architectural diversity (no I am not an architect, I just notice non classic), or if you want to surprise someone, I recommend the following wellness center by my taste ...

ROMAN SPA: 
Roman spas have 4 saunas. 2 steam, 1 infra and 1 finnish. They also have indoor cold pool and whirlpool, and outside whirlpool. During the week, unfortunately, they don't have so many sauna programs, but I don't care too much. If you ever see any guest who is happily swirling air for herself and for those who come later in the sauna ... well that's me. And I assure you that you will not rest until the end on the third bench ...You always have water or tea avaliable. 
And their pool. I call it as an architectural art. Even their "hided" massage small pools are great. And beautiful green tiles! And what is most beautiful .... silence and peace. There I can always really relax. 
And do not overlook the benefits of the Spar card 1 + 1! For a 4 hour jump in the sauna or swimming pool is the Roman Spa in the first place! You can check them over here.

WELLNESS ZALA: 
in (Topolsica) you have 9 saunas. 4 steam and 5 finnish saunas. Inside ia a giant whirlpool, outdoor whirlpool and athe best part- large swimming pool! I always go one floor higher to the restaurant Luna on the lunch. Then I rest on the terrace with great views. You can only buy all-day ticket for only € 16, weekends € 2 more. 
I was also there for New Year, so I hadn't any  problems with the choice of clothes. I also went to the sauna on the full moon program, and on full moon they are open until midnight. And great programs! And green tiles and walls with no sharp edges. I can't find a negative point. Very highly recommend! You can check them over here.

WELLNESS ORHIDELIA: 
In Orhidelia you have 5 saunas and 2 of them are steam sauna,1  is infra and 2 are finnish. Within the sauna area is an outdoor swimming pool inside is the cold pool and a big whirlpool. Their programs are fenomenal! I really almost died! They are really professionals. I think I was 10 minutes in the cold pool after the program. After the program they offer you tea and fresh fruit. How many resting areas they have I don't know, because they have literally every corner designed as a resting place. It is necessery to taste their cakes and ice cream with 100% fruit content! The lower pool has underwater music. The guests were mostly foreigners. Price for the whole day is € 27.50, € 35 weekend. Yes it is worth it. When I come back home I am calm and rested, because in this wellness is no noise, just silence. Recently I read that they had some kind of tournament programs, but I did not know about this! That I really regret it! For peace, pleasant tiredness and prestige is Orhidelia right address. You can check them over here.
