Bled, Slovenia
The town of Bled is located in northwestern Slovenia (location). It borders the glacial lake known as Lake Bled in the Julian Alps. The lake has one island, Bled Island and the main building on the island is the pilgrimage church dedicated to the Assumption of Mary. It is a 17th century church with parts dating earlier than that.
The town of Bled and the adjoining lake are very popular places for tourists to visit in this part of the world and, like many tourists, we enjoyed a walk around the lake with its many flower beds and assorted collection of wildlife.
