culturaltravelromantic
These traditional flat-bottomed boats are the only way to reach Bled Island, operated by local oarsmen whose families have held this privilege for generations. The boatmen row standing up using a unique technique passed down through centuries. Make a wish and ring the church bell three times – legend says it will come true if you can make it chime.
