Ohrid is a city located in southwestern NorthMacedonia, on the northeast coast of LakeOhrid, which is also named after the city. Due to its large number of churches andmonasteries, Ohrid is known as the Balkan and European Jerusalem, but also as the “city of light”, which is a literal translation of its former name. Home to narrow, cobblestoned streets and architecture reminiscent of medieval times, visitingOhrid may feel like travelling back in time. It is a holidaymaker’s paradise, with its glimmering beaches, spectacular views and awealth of Mediterranean cuisine. Ohrid, one of the oldest settlements in Europe, was once considered the epicentre of religion and Slavic culture. Its history is evident in each of the buildings that line the streets of the city’s old town. However, it is LakeOhrid that makes the city a unique historical artefact. At threemillion years old, this lake represents one of Europe’s oldest, while it also among the deepest, and this body of water provides Ohridwith the prestigious status of being proclaimed both a cultural and natural UNESCO World Heritage site. The lake offers pockets of beach areas that reveal views of the surrounding mountains and hills. Along the shoreline, carefully reconstructed villages on stilts give the area an Italian vibe. For those bored of the beach, hikes leading around the shoreline and into themountains are particularly enticing. Themore vigorous hiking and cycling trails will reward those that conquer themwith beautiful views over the lake. Once boasting 365 churches, this city has a fascinating architectural layout, filledwithmonasteries, fortresses and castles. Some of the architecture dates back to 200BC, including the city’s ancient amphitheatre, whichwas once used to host gladiator fights and now serves as a concert and theatre venue.
