Expano with Sobota Lake

Expano, set on the shores of Sobota Lake in Murska Sobota, is a dynamic gateway to the Pomurje region and a must-visit for travelers interested in modern architecture, interactive learning, and outdoor recreation. Housed in a striking pavilion originally built for the Milan Expo, Expano now serves as a regional promotional center, seamlessly blending history, technology, and sustainability.

Inside, visitors are greeted by an interactive experience park where state-of-the-art technology—such as virtual reality and hands-on exhibits—brings the natural wonders, traditions, and stories of Pomurje to life. The pavilion also features a tourist information center with a shop offering local products, a restaurant serving regional cuisine, and a business space for events and meetings. Expano’s design is environmentally friendly, reflecting its mission to promote sustainable tourism and nature conservation.

Just outside, Sobota Lake offers a tranquil setting for relaxation and adventure. The area is ideal for walking, cycling, or simply enjoying the lakeside views. In warmer months, the lake becomes a hub for water sports and family activities, making it a lively complement to the educational experiences inside Expano.

Open year-round, Expano is accessible and welcoming to all ages. Whether you’re looking to learn about the Pomurje region, enjoy local flavors, or spend time by the water, Expano with Sobota Lake provides a unique and memorable stop in northeastern Slovenia.
