The Church Bell grants wishes.
There are many urban legends about the Bled island and its history, some of which also inspired the greatest Slovenian poet France Prešeren. However, one legend in particular is best known to everyone, the so-called legend of the sunken Bell. The legend of the sunken Bell speaks of the origin and preservation of the Bell, which is nowadays a big part of St. Mary’s Church.
Many visitors on Bled island ring the Bell in hope that their desires and wishes will be fulfilled. It is believed that the Bell brings good luck to everyone who rings the Bell.
A Slovenian cliché. Lake Bled...at twilight.

I just finished an amazing trip around Slovenia, and will be sharing my favourite shots from my 8 days there. Slovenia is an absolutely breathtaking country and I can't recommend it enough.
Of course I had to share a photo of Bled and the beautiful surroundings from above. At first I was disappointed to find the lake almost completely enclosed in shadow, but after some time I've come to really like the way you can make out the shapes of the peaks that are causing the shadows :)

The Assumption of Maria Church is on the island in the lake and if you look carefully you will see a myriad of little wooden boats rowing backwards and forwards to the island.
No motor boats are allowed on the lake so it's man power only.

Here is a closer look at the Church on the Island, which I mentioned in a previous post. People flock to the church constantly in the day time, by various methods; Ferry, Canoe, Paddle board and even swimming, which takes around 15-20 minutes.
I personally reached the church by Kayak, which was fun :)
PASSEGGIATA SULLE RIVE.
Uno dei grandi pregi di Bled è rappresentato dalle passeggiate che circondano il lago. Sono sentieri contrassegnati e molto curati che conducono fino sul monte del Castello che domina la valle.
