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.
