Fijet Golden Apple to Postojna cave
The final date for the ceremony of awarding Golden Apple to Postojna Cave, Slovenia will be 15 May 2014. The Golden Apple programme will be from May 14 to 18, 2014. Originally planned for March, the event had been postponed due to extremely severe weather conditions in the most area of Slovenia at the beginning of February. At that time, a huge ice storm reached Postojna. Fortunately, there was no damage in the Cave. The Cave was without electrical energy. Outside, in the brother aria of Postojna power lines were cut but for safety reasons the Cave had to be closed for some days. The Postojna cave is meanwhile reopened for visitors and repairing of the effected infrastructure in the surroundings of Postojna Cave is in progress. Postojna Cave is the Slovenia’s most remarkable natural sight, the most visited cave in Europe and one of the most beautiful caves with richest cave formations in the world. The cave operator company Postonjska jama in recent years introduced the concept of sustainable tourism development for the cave as to preserve this outstanding tourist attraction to future generations in good or an even better shape than today. Marjan Batagelj, CEO of Postonjska jama notes that investments are not mainly aimed at massively increasing the number of visitors, but especially at giving the guests an extraordinary experience, showing them that the cave is truly unique.
