Nova Vas is a residential district in northeastern Maribor. It is characterized by and large a neighborhood of apartment blocks constructed during the 1980s, with some buildings reaching up to 16 stories.

Getting There

The district is located a short distance from the center of Maribor. You can reach it via local bus or by taxi. The trip typically takes about 10 to 15 minutes depending on traffic conditions.

Duration of Visit

Because this is a residential area rather than a traditional tourist site, a walk of 1 to 2 hours is generally sufficient to see the skyline and the layout of the neighborhood.
