#24 : Lake Bled, Slovenia

in #travel7 years ago

Glacial lake in the Julian Alps, north-west Slovenia. It covers an area of 1.44 km². The lake was formed in an old tectonic hollow at the end of the last ice age as a result of the melting of the great Bohinjski Glacier. At present, no larger over-ground watercourses enter the lake, and water is supplied mainly by efficient underground sources. In the western part of the lake there is a small island called Blejski Otok with a well-known pilgrimage church dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary. It is green, covered with trees and shrubs hides a belfry, a church, a presbytery, a small loneliness. There are a lot of legends about the island.27893616_1917227401682896_8455796277945303040_n.jpg
