 Lake
Bled in Slovenia 
      Located among forested mountains and rocky gorges, the lakeside resort of Bled is dominated by a cliff-top castle perched high above the water. Situated in the shadow of forested mountains, Lake Bled has been a famous retreat
for over 200 years.  The church on the little island stands on the site of
a pagan temple. Bled,  in spite of its resort-like atmosphere, still offers a relaxing fairytale-like experience. A
stroll around the lake,  especially in the early morning or evening, is recommended.  |
