Bled is every bit as lovely in real life (Lonely Planet)
“Yes, it's every bit as lovely in real
life. With its bluish-green lake, picture-postcard church on an islet, medieval
castle clinging to a rocky cliff and some of the highest peaks of the Julian
Alps and the Karavanke as backdrops, Bled is Slovenia's most popular resort,
drawing everyone from honeymooners lured by the over-the-top romantic setting
to backpackers, who come for the hiking, biking, water-sports and canyoning
possibilities.” This description of Bled was published in one of the most
frequently read travel media, Lonely Planet.
