[Slovenia] The eye of the Alps! Lake Bled with its picturesque old castle

Slovenia is located in Eastern Europe. Lake Bled is a glacial lake in the mountainous region 35km from the capital Ljubljana in the northwest of Slovenia. The lake is so beautiful that it is called the "eye of the Alps" and is one of Slovenia's most famous tourist spots. Weddings can be held in a small church floating on the milky blue lake, and there is a superstition that if the groom carries the bride up the stairs in silence, they will be happy. However, the stairs are steep, so the groom will be very tired if the bride does not lighten his weight (lol). The observation deck overlooking Lake Bled is located in an old castle towering over the lake, and it is like an art museum and souvenir shop (admission is charged). There is also a cafe attached. It was a cute spot like something out of a fairy tale picture book. Lake Bled (Blejsko jezero) is one of the most impressive touristic sites in Slovenia, There is a small island called "Bled island" in the middle of the lake, built with a small church dedicated to the Assumption of Mary . The church has like a romantic jinx(legend) that a bridal couple would be happy if the bridegroom can get to the church lifting his bride in his arms. There is an observatory in the old castle lakeside, renovated like a museum, souvenir shop and cafe. #tripoverseas travel #slovenia #old castle #scenic view
