Dolga Poljana

Dolga Poljana (pronounced [ˈdoːu̯ɡa pɔˈljaːna], German: Langenfeld) is a village in the Vipava Valley east of Ajdovščina in the traditional Inner Carniola region of Slovenia. It is now generally regarded as part of the Slovenian Littoral.

The stone arch linking Dolga Poljana over the Vipava River to Dolenje

A stone arch bridge over the Vipava River links Dolga Poljana to the village of Dolenje. The three-arch bridge was built in the 19th century. It is paved with gravel and is supported by buttresses that are reinforced with groynes on the upstream side. There is a low stone wall on both sides of the bridge, and a shrine with a semi-circular niche once stood at it.
