Šalovci, 16 September - Budinci, a small village a stone's throw away from the border with Hungary in eastern Slovenia, is home to what is likely the biggest sample plantation of fruit trees and shrubs in Europe. Owned by a Swiss transplant, the plantation is all the more remarkable because it features only wild species.
