Ohrid

Ohrid is a city in North Macedonia and the seat of the City of Ohrid. It is the largest city on Lake Ohrid and the eighth-largest city in the country. Sometimes called the 'Jerusalem of the Balkans,' as it was once home to 365 churches. Ohrid is a historic town among the beautiful and atmospheric cities in Macedonia.


Wandering around the old cobbled streets is a treat; you'll pass by some interesting architecture and quaint little cafes and restaurants that make a perfect stop when you want to take a break to watch the world go by. Among its most popular attractions are the charming Fort Samuil overlooking the town and the Church of Saints Clement and Panteleimon - one of the most impressive of the many churches in Ohrid.


However, what sets Ohrid apart is its stunning location on the shores of Lake Ohrid. The town is endowed with nature with many breathtaking views of the emerald green water. In addition to taking a scenic stroll along the town's waterfront boardwalk, visitors shouldn't miss Saint John at Kaneo Church for the incredible panoramas it looms over the lake.
