Located in the heart of Velenje the promenade connects the areas of elementary schools, the health centre and the city centre, as it crosses the Paka River. The project was completed in 2014 and replaced a somewhat dated and unattractive space in the middle of the city that was actually a road when ‘new’ Velenje was first designed in the 1950s. Its overhaul transformed the area into a modern and stylish space; it now has an amphitheater along the river, a narrower bridge than previously, meaning more of the river can be viewed, ample seating and green areas for folks to enjoy outdoor space - rather than just pass through it. Those visiting Velenje will no doubt pass through it at some point and appreciate its splendour, and it’s definitely a must for those with an interest in modern architecture.
