Bled Island, Slovenia

    Bled is a municipality in northwestern Slovenia in the region of Upper Carniola. The area within the Julian Alps is a popular tourist destination.

    Bled is famous for the glacial Lake Bled, which makes it a major tourist attraction.

    A small island in the middle of the lake is home to the Assumption of Mary Pilgrimage Church; visitors frequently ring its bell for good luck.
