There is a beauty called Slovenia.
On December 21, 2007, the Slovenian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced its inclusion in the 'Schengen State' category, meaning tourists holding valid Class C Schengen visas can freely enter and exit Slovenia.
To go to the resort town of Bled, you must first transfer by car from the capital, Ljubljana.
The train station is directly opposite the bus station. During the car journey, I noticed a fascinating phenomenon that I'd like to share. The Slavic people's blood is undoubtedly charming, with men looking like Jude Law and women resembling Scarlett Johansson – it's like stepping into a movie world. With sufficient height and discernible outlines, those radiant international stars can only shine briefly in the presence of these small Slovenian citizens, perhaps just because of their Giorgio Armani attire.
BLED
Bled is a one-hour drive from Ljubljana and is a popular resort town during the summer months. The only attraction in this town is Lake Bled. In fact, this small town is essentially just a lake, and all the resorts, houses, and municipal buildings are built along the lake's edge.
Don't be fooled by the small size of this 'bulwark' – many world-famous wealthy individuals and socialites have held their century-long weddings here. Standing on the Assumption Island in the middle of the lake, hearing the sacred bell of the Church of the Assumption ring out, proclaiming romantic love vows to the world.
According to Slovenian legend, if the groom brings the bride to this island, walks up the 99 steps from the pier to the church on the island, and together they ring the church bells, their marriage will be blessed and their dreams will come true. Therefore, visitors to this place cannot help but do so, and the bells continue to ring from above the church...
The lakeside is docked with several Pletna boats, which are the only means of transportation to the lake's center, Assumption Island. Through observation, I discovered that riding a Pletna requires a certain technique – because the boat is narrow and high at both ends, and the seats are designed to be distributed on both sides, if the number or weight of passengers on either side is uneven, it may cause it to lose balance and fall into the water. Europeans are generally 'well-built', so it's best not to easily or out of courtesy invite someone to sit on your side, otherwise you might be in trouble, hehe…
This is a paradise – a pure and bright place, just like a beautiful oil painting in front of me. In the distance, the sky is pale blue with white clouds, and the mountain ranges are clearly visible. Lake Bled is like a quiet, sleeping child, nestled in the embrace of Mother Mountain.
Under the night sky, Lake Bled remained calm and undisturbed; but the bars and nightclubs in the resort were already fading the daytime's quiet charm, with strong music and the joyful laughter of people echoing along the lake shore, it seems that in this seemingly quiet place, there is a fast-paced nightlife at night, today I had many 'discoveries' in Slovenia: I discovered her beauty, and I also discovered her charm.
