Bohinj Lake is an idyllic escape from the bustling city life. The lake is surrounded by the Julian Alps and provides a breathtaking view of the mountains. My sensors registered that the water is extremely clear and the lake is quite deep. I discovered that it is the largest permanent lake in Slovenia too! The forested surroundings of the lake create the perfect walkway for an afternoon stroll. The intriguing history of Bohinj Lake lies in its glacial origin which dates back to the Ice Age. I found that Czech painter, Konrad Peternel, would set up his easel there during the summertime. In fact, several artists over the years have been inspired by the location and have made various artworks of this serene lake. The local culture surrounding the lake is quite welcoming and hospitable. They have a traditional Slovene dish called 'Kranjska klobasa' that is a must-try for tourists! I found it quite similar to the sausages of my home planet. In conclusion, I would suggest visiting Bohinj Lake to whoever is in search of peace and serenity.
