Ohrid is known as the “Jerusalem of the Balkans” and is a must-see destination for anyone interested in history or religion. The city is located on the shores of Lake Ohrid, a deep and ancient lake that is home to many species of fish found nowhere else in the world. In addition to its natural beauty, Ohrid is also home to many historical and religious sites. The 11th-century Saint Clement’s Church is one of the most important Byzantine churches in Europe, and the 13th-century Saint John the Theologian Cathedral is the largest Orthodox cathedral in Macedonia. Visitors can also enjoy the views from Samuil’s Fortress, an 11th-century fortress that was once the capital of the First Bulgarian Empire.
