Bled Castle above Lake Bled, Slovenia

johannpiber (72)in #photography • 5 years ago

The castle of Bled is located on a 456 ft high cliff above Lake Bled in Slovenia and is said to be the oldest castle in Slovenia.

Die Burg von Bled ist auf einem 139 Meter hohen Felsen über dem Bleder See in Slowenien und soll die älteste Burg Sloweniens sein.

It was cloudy around Lake Bled today, and in some places it was raining quite heavily. At the lake itself was beautiful spring weather and I could even see some tourists swimming in the lake.

Rund um den Bleder See war es heute bewölkt, und stellenweise regnete es sogar recht stark. Am See selbst herrschte schönstes Frühlingswetter und ich konnte sogar schon einige Urlauber im See schwimmen sehen.

I can only imagine living there!!! Can you picture the view? Forever Yours? If one could own a view! Oh, to be able to swim in the frigid water, whenever you please! I love Slovenia and how often we remember how beautiful, but forget the true loveliness.

Superb shot and what a dream of a castle!

Sorry for the late reply, but I was on a hike yesterday and came home too late.
Thank you very much, @dswigle, Slowenia is a beautiful small country, and I love to go there whenever I can. The lake Bled is a real gem and only about an hour away from where I live, but I go there preferable not in Summer, because of the millions of tourists ;)

Looks like a very nice place. I love castles especially built on a cliff or in the top of the mountain. Noted as a place to visit in the future.

Slowenien ist ein kleines Land, aber wunderschön - fast so schön wie Österreich ;) ... ich bin sehr oft und gerne dort, und sie haben auch das Mittelmeer :)

I like that rock face. The place is beautiful but I have my suspicion that the water is a little cold still. Brave tourists:)

Some of the tourists have been wearing swimsuits and some have been swimming, and yes, @prydefoltz, the water is quite cold ;)
