Bled
Bled is a town on Lake Bled in the Upper Kranj region in northwestern Slovenia. It is the administrative seat of the Municipality of Bled. It is most prominent as a popular tourist destination in Upper Kranjska and throughout Slovenia, attracting visitors from abroad as well. On the rock overlooking the lake is the iconic Bled castle. The town is also known in Slovenia for its vanilla and cream pastries (Slovenian: kremšnita, kremna rezina). On a small island in the middle of the lake there is a pilgrimage church of the Assumption of Mary; visitors often ring its bell, due to an old legend that claims it brings good luck.
