Description of your community:
Medvode is a town located 12 km far from the centre of the capital Ljubljana, where there is the confluence of the river Sava and the Sora at the south ¶ east edge of the Sorica field. Medvode lies between the two rivers that's why it got that name (Medvode ¶ between water). It's also surrounded by nice peaks and the Alps at the back. The city has got a good connection with Kranj, ªkofja Loka and Ljubljana so the industry is developed too (Color, Donit, The factory of cellulose and The factory of paper).
