Kranjska Gora municipality in theUpper Carniola region ofSlovenia . The village church is dedicated toSaint Andrew and is of late Gothic origin as are many houses in the village, but was largely refurbished in the Baroque style. [cite web |url=http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/]
Podkoren lies immediately below the
Wurzenpass mountain pass leading intoCarinthia inAustria .One of the village's claims to fame is that Sir Humphry Davy stayed there on a visit to the area.
The
Zelenci nature reserve, at the source of the river Sava, is situated just west of the village. TheSava Dolinka flows east from here, to the south of Podkoren.References
