Bled among the 17 best small towns in Europe (Travel + Leisure)
“Picturesque Bled looks like a mythical scene dreamed up by a Grimm brother. Its most prominent feature is an ethereal 17th-century church perched on a tear-shaped island in Lake Bled, which you can get to by boat”, is how the top travel media brand in the world, Travel + Leisure, which is read by more than 16 million travellers every month, describes Bled. The editorial board chose Bled as one of the 17 best small towns in Europe, adding that Bled and its surrounds offer outdoor activities year-round, from hiking mountain trails to rowing on the lake to summer tobogganing down Straža Hill, with amazing views of the water below.
