Radovljica
A well-preserved medieval town near Bled, famous for its beekeeping museum and gingerbread crafts.
Radovljica lies about 7 km southeast of Bled. Its old town sits on a terrace above the Sava valley, and on either side of Linhart Square stand Gothic and Renaissance buildings with painted facades. The town's Beekeeping Museum displays distinctive painted beehive panels and tells the story of Slovenia's tradition as a land of beekeeping. Nearby are gingerbread workshops and traditional restaurants. The chocolate festival held every May is lively. A bus from Bled takes about 15 minutes, and the town can be combined with Lake Bled and the Vintgar Gorge.
