Slovenia [ˌsloʊˈviniə] 斯洛文尼亚

Slovenia, a country in Central Europe, is known for its mountains, ski resorts and lakes. On Lake Bled, a glacial lake fed by hot springs, the town of Bled contains a church-topped islet and a cliffside medieval castle. In Ljubljana, Slovenia’s capital, baroque facades mix with the 20th-century architecture of native Jože Plečnik, whose iconic Tromostovje (Triple Bridge) spans the tightly curving Ljubljanica River. ― Google

Ljubljana [ˈljubljɑnə] 卢布尔雅那 (首都）

Ljubljana is Slovenia's capital and largest city. It's known for its university population and green spaces, including expansive Tivoli Park. The curving Ljubljanica River, lined in outdoor cafes, divides the city's old town from its
commercial hub. Ljubljana has many museums, including the National Museum of Slovenia, displaying historic exhibitions, and the Museum of Modern Art, home to 20th-century Slovene paintings and sculptures. ― Google

erstwhile [ˈɜːrstwaɪl] 过去的，之前的

Emulate erstwhile pilgrims journeying to the astonishingly lovely Lake Bled. It started with the pilgrims that have come from afar to worship at the photogenic island church for a millennium or more. ( Lonely Planet )

winsome [ˈwɪnsəm] 迷人的；可爱的；引人注目的

The lake continued with the lakeside sojourns of 19th-ccentury royalty and then of former Yugoslav President Tito who had a villa on the shores and today tourism to Slovenia's lovely Lake Bled shows no sign of slowing. This blue-green body of water offset by a winsome white church on a green island, abutted by a terracotta-roofed castle and backed by snow-covered mountains. ( Lonely Planet )

crowd-puller 吸引人群的人（或事物）

Lake Bled is Slovenia’s premier crowd-puller. It is unashamedly picturesque, flaunting itself brazenly to the admiring visitors it attracts through its scenic lure and Alpine splendour. Forest covered mountain slopes encircle the beautiful calm waters, and it’s beautiful all year round, but travel to Lake Bled in Winter, when the snow is falling, when the frost sticks to the ground and the water is icy cold, and Lake Bled truly is glorious.

glamping ( glamous + camping ) 舒适型宿营

Slovenia does not rest on its laurels when promoting this paradise and has won praise for eco-initiatives like ecologically designed Garden Village Bled, where a stream snakes through a serene collection of tree-houses and glamping tents. ( Lonely Planet )

spellbinding [ˈspelbaɪndɪŋ] 让人着魔的; 迷人的

Lake Bled has to be one of the most spellbinding places in Slovenia, if not Europe. This incredibly scenic lake near the Alps looks too good to be real. With an island church, clifftop castle, and epic mountain backdrop, you’re sure to find more than enough activities here to keep you entertained. When visiting Ljubljana, it’s easy to make your first trip to Lake Bled as either a day trip, or as a place to spend the night, given how close the two are. These tips for traveling to Lake Bled will tell you everything you need to know to have a great time exploring this fairytale spot. (roadaffair.com)

belfry [ˈbel.fri ] 钟楼，钟塔

Set amongst the island’s trees, what stands out the most is the church’s belfry, and the 99 step staircase down that seems to descend into the water. The church was built in the 15th century to replace a pagan temple to the local goddess of love. No surprise then that the island is home to several local legends, including that a wish will be granted if you ring the church’s bell three times. (roadaffair.com)

pletna 当地特色人力手摇船

You can easily visit the church either by taking a ride in a traditional boat called a pletna, or renting and rowing one yourself. Sitting on the boat you gently glide out to the island as you’re paddled out and then given time to explore before heading back. A return trip in a plenta costs around €15, while a small private boat for you to paddle can cost around €12 per hour. (roadaffair.com)

sweet tooth 嗜甜，对甜食（尤指糖果和巧克力）的喜爱

Although it’s possible to experience Slovenian cuisine during your trip to Lake Bled, the area isn’t known for any sort of fancy culinary concoction. Actually, in the realm of food, Lake Bled is best known for its delicious kremšnita, otherwise known as the Bled Cream Cake. The cream cake is a dessert made from layers of puff pastry, custard cream, and whipped cream. It’ll be hard not to go back for a second for any of those who have a sweet tooth, which isn’t such a bad idea if you’re somewhere like the Park Restaurant and Cafe where they have chocolate fruit versions of the cream cake too.
