VENUE
  TEMPMEKO
& ISHM 2010 will be organized in
Portorož,
Slovenia, located on the Slovenian coast on the Adriatic
sea. The conference will be held at the complex of
Bernardin hotels, which offers the latest conference
facilities and accommodation. There is also a large
exhibition space, which will enable all the interested
exhibitors from the relevant fields to present their
products.
During the conference, most of the
attendees will be housed at the same hotel complex, on-site
with the meeting facilities. There are also several other
possibilities for more economical
accommodation.
  The
venue offers many possibilities for interesting cultural
visits. The medieval coastal town
Piran
is just a 30-min walk from the conference venue. Also, the
world famous
Postojna cave and
Lipica (Lipizzaner
horse) are very near and represent worthwhile visits.
Piran and Portorož are also good starting points to go to
Salina Nature Park and to
Skocjan
carst caves (more wild,
Unesco protected).
Venice in Italy is only one hour and a half away by a
speed-boat from the venue. These are just a few of the
potentially interesting things to do, not only for delegates
to the conference, but also for accompanying persons.
Getting there
By Air:
Conference delegates can fly directly to
Ljubljana International Airport
(~90 min from the venue), to
Trieste International Airport (~45 min from the venue)
or to either of the two Venice airports (~3 hours from the
venue) from major cities around the world, and then take a
drive by a conference centre shuttle bus service to get to
the venue.
To order a shuttle from the airport, please do not forget
to mark that when registering!
By Train and Bus:
The nearest railway station is in
Koper. From there you can take a
bus to Portorož. There is also a bus line from
Trieste to Piran.
By Car:
There are two highways which both end in
Koper (15 km away from Portorož). One is coming from
direction of Ljubljana, second one is coming from Trieste in
Italy.
You MUST buy a toll
sticker
(vignette) to travel on highways in Slovenia. Sticker prices
depend on the time duration. They can be bought in other
countries at gas stations before the Slovenian border or at
the border and must be fixed to the left high corner of the
windshield. The highways do not have toll booths but there
are frequent checks and heavy fines for those travelling
without the stickers.
Please, consult
Via Michelin for more details.
Electricity supply
Mains electricity in Slovenia is a 230 Volts 50 Hz system.
Slovenia uses the
Europlug (CEE 7/16).
