The Ljubljana Gap,[1][2] less often the Ljubljana Gate[3][4] (Slovene: Ljubljanska vrata), is a geographical term for
the transition area between the Alps and Dinaric Alps that passes from southwest to northeast between Trieste and Ljubljana.
A strategically-vital mountain pass in Europe, it is named after Ljubljana, the capital city of Slovenia.[5]
