Slovenia – A Green Destination Celebrated on World Bee Day
Celebrate World Bee Day with Slovenia at Expo Osaka. The aim of this event is to present Slovenia as a green, boutique, and diverse tourist destination to Japanese media representatives and invited guests. Taking place on the symbolic occasion of World Bee Day – a United Nations-recognized international day initiated by Slovenia – the event uses this meaningful context to highlight the country’s broader values: sustainability, cultural richness, and authentic hospitality.
