Slovenia seeking UNESCO listing of Plečnik's Ljubljana works

Ljubljana, 23 January - Slovenia will formally seek a UNESCO listing of famed architect Jože Plečnik's works in the capital Ljubljana after an earlier joint bid with the Czech Republic was abandoned. All of Plečnik's major works in Ljubljana will be nominated for the world heritage list, except for the dilapidated Bežigrad Stadium.
