OHRID

        Ohrid is a city-museum with numerous archaeological treasures, with a number of early Christian basilicas, a great number of churches, luxurious mosaics, valuable archaeological sites and an antique theatre, which confirm that Ohrid was a cultural centre of the ancient era.

        Lake Ohrid, the blue Macedonian pearl, is one of the oldest and best-preserved lakes in the world. It lies at an altitude of 695 m, has an area of 358 km² and maximum depth of 289 m. The crystal-clear lake water and the unpolluted environment afford a breath of untouched nature.

        Ohrid and Lake Ohrid have been named a world cultural and natural heritage listed city under the protection of UNESCO since 1980.

        Over the centuries, an enormous and colourful heritage of beautiful architecture, crafts and traditions has evolved. Combined with its scenic lake and mountainscape, interesting town and village architecture, local hospitality, climate and delicious fresh food, a visit to the Ohrid area will be deeply rewarding.
