Lake Bled/Blejsko jezero, Bled Island/Blejski otok, Julian Alps, Slovenia, Europe
A medieval church was built in the 1400s on glacially formed Lake Bled (Slovene: Blejsko jezero) in the Julian Alps in northwestern Slovenia, Europe. The lake surrounds Bled Island (Blejski otok, the only natural island in Slovenia), upon which stands the Pilgrimage Church of the Assumption of Mary (Slovenian: Cerkev Marijinega vnebovzetja), built in the 1400s and now popular for romantic weddings. Lake Bled hosted the World Rowing Championships in 1966, 1979, 1989, and 2011. The lake is 35 kilometers from Ljubljana International Airport.
