唤醒沉睡的湖泊 Awake to the lake

布莱德湖，斯洛文尼亚

布莱德湖邀请您走进童话般的风景中！这个占地358英亩的美丽湖泊，就坐落在斯洛文尼亚朱利安阿尔卑斯山脉之中。这里的主角是一个散发着传奇与浪漫魅力的小岛——布莱德岛。让我们跳上当地传统的普莱特纳船，前往岛上的圣地。这种平底船是布莱德岛独有的，只有23艘，由技术娴熟的浆手驾驶着它们在湖上航行，而浆手这个职业自1740年以来就在当地世代相传。岛上还有一座17世纪的圣母升天教堂，里面有一口特别的钟，传说这口钟可以让人愿望成真！如果您向岸边望去，就能看见俯瞰着广阔湖面的布莱德城堡。它坐落在湖西北岸的布莱德镇上方的悬崖上，是斯洛文尼亚最古老的城堡之一。

斯洛文尼亚式的节日氛围 Holiday cheer, Slovenian style

卢布尔雅那，斯洛文尼亚共和国

多么可爱的城市啊！斯洛文尼亚首都卢布尔雅那和流经该市的卢布尔雅尼察河的名字的前缀都是“ljub”，这个前缀在斯拉夫语中的意思是“爱”。卢布尔雅那位于连接亚得里亚海北部和多瑙河地区的贸易路线之上，是一个相对较小的首都，人口不到30万。城市南部是卢布尔雅那沼泽，这是该国最大的沼泽，面积达63平方英里。卢布尔雅那的外围地区现代建筑林立，而城市的核心区则保留了具有古罗马和中世纪元素的历史建筑。例如卢布尔雅那城堡、三重桥、龙桥和历史悠久的老城区。当你在城中闲逛时，一定要留心，因为你很可能会遇到这座城市的象征——卢布尔雅那龙。

绿松石般的泉水 Revealing nature's turquoise gem

泽伦西自然保护区，斯洛文尼亚

泽伦西温泉位于意大利、奥地利和斯洛文尼亚三国的交界处，多个泉眼汇集形成了这个清澈的海蓝色湖泊。在这里，游客们可以尽情欣赏大自然色彩瑰丽的调色盘。

泽伦西自然保护区占地面积只有3937英尺长，492英尺宽。由于该地区拥有大量的植物和野生动物，泽伦西自然保护区于1992年被设为生态保护区。有趣的是，如果游客仔细观察泽伦西温泉的湖床，会发现一些“水下火山”，温泉正从其中汩汩冒出。不管地面上天气如何，温泉的温度一直保持在41华氏度左右，因此湖水即使在冬天也不会结冰。

Zelenci Nature Reserve, Slovenia

Experience nature's palette at its colorful best at Zelenci Springs, where Italy, Austria, and Slovenia meet, and multiple springs combine to form this aquamarine lake. Here in Slovenia’s Triglav National Park, these crystal-clear waters are the source of the Sava Dolinka, which runs into the country’s longest river, the Sava. Peer closely at the lakebed and you will see tiny springs bubbling up beneath the water's surface. These spring waters never freeze as underground water temperatures stay around 41 degrees Fahrenheit, enough to keep flowing through harsh winters in this alpine region.

Get on your bike and ride

In honor of the UN's World Bicycle Day, we're at Triglav National Park in Slovenia, with a birds-eye view of riders crossing this dubious-looking wooden suspension bridge over the glacial blue water of the river called Soča. Protecting some of the most magnificent mountain landscapes of the Julian Alps, Triglav is the country's only national park, but it's a stunner. Running along Slovenia's northwestern border with Italy, Triglav was first protected as a 'conservation park' in 1924, then made a national park in 1981. The park gets its name from the mountain at its heart, Triglav, long considered a symbol of Slovenia and of Slovene identity.

Since 2018, the UN General Assembly has recognized June 3 as World Bicycle Day to honor 'the uniqueness, longevity, and versatility of the bicycle, which has been in use for two centuries.' The bicycle has gone through many iterations since Karl Drais created the brake-less, pedal-less bike forerunner called a 'velocipede' in 1817. The German inventor would likely be floored by today's variety of bike options, from new lightweight road bikes to heavier mountain bikes with fatter, knobby tires designed to handle rougher terrain. More than 200 years after von Drais introduced his two-wheeled contraption, bicycles remain as popular as ever. Chances are there's one just waiting for you to take it for a spin, and what better day to do so than World Bicycle Day?

骑上你的自行车

为了纪念联合国的世界自行车日，我们来到了斯洛文尼亚的特里格拉夫国家公园，鸟瞰着骑手们穿过这座看起来可疑的木制吊桥，桥上是一条蓝色的冰川河，这条河被称为Soča。特里格拉夫保护着朱利安阿尔卑斯山上一些最壮丽的山景，是这个国家唯一的国家公园，但它是一个惊人的奇迹。特里格拉夫位于斯洛文尼亚西北部与意大利交界处，1924年首次作为“保护公园”受到保护，1981年被列为国家公园。该公园的名字来源于其核心山脉特里格拉夫，长期以来被认为是斯洛文尼亚和斯洛文尼亚人身份的象征。

自2018年以来，联合国大会将6月3日定为世界自行车日，以纪念自行车的独特性、长寿性和多功能性，这种自行车已经使用了两个世纪。自从卡尔·德赖斯发明了无刹车自行车以来，自行车经历了多次迭代，1817年被称为“velocipede”的无踏板自行车的先驱。这位德国发明家很可能会被今天各种各样的自行车选择所打倒，从新的轻型公路自行车到更重的山地自行车，这些自行车的轮胎设计得更胖、多节，以适应更崎岖的地形。在冯·德赖斯发明了他的双轮装置200多年后，自行车仍然像以前一样流行。很有可能有一天你正等着去兜风呢，还有什么日子比世界自行车日更好呢？

It's Slovenia's Independence and Unity Day

Today we're featuring an image of the Slovenian village of Praprotno and its Church of St. Thomas for the country's Independence and Unity Day. On December 26, 1990 the results of a Slovenian vote on the country's independence were announced. More than 95 percent of voters answered 'Yes' to the question: Should the Republic of Slovenia become an independent and sovereign state?

Six months later, on June 25, 1991, Slovenia's Constitutional Charter passed, and Slovenians declared themselves citizens of an independent country. A few days after, a brief conflict between the Yugoslav People's Army and Slovenian Territorial Defense occurred, known as the Ten-Day War, but was brought to a swift end with the signing of the Brioni Agreement on July 7, 1991.
