Some time ago, there were numerous floating mills on the Mura River.Out of the hundreds today only Babičev Mill inVerželj has been preserved; during the last years that in Ižakovci is also worth the visit, where the tradition of büjranje on the Mura River is being revived again.
Around the famous Island of Love, some legends have been circulating. During the carnival season the nation's playfulness and the appreciation of old traditions, such as borovo gostüvanje, come to light. The place Beltinci is well-known for its long years of rich folklore tradition, which is being preserved by the annual Folklore Festival, unique in Slovenia. The land of the hills – Goričko hides numerous pearls and covers almost half of Prekmurje. A lot of those pearls can be seen in the Regional Park Goričko ..

Trojica on the top of Lendavske gorice. Lendava is the most eastern Slovenian town; there is an abundance of friendliness and hospitality also in this bilingual area. To conclude, the traveller will surely like to taste the characteristic Prekurje sweet dish "prekmurska gibanica" and a glass of domestic sparkling wine that is slowly making its way into the big world.
