Ohrid Beauty
During the 16th century, the picturesque lakeside city of Ohrid was reported to have 365 churches, one for every day of the year. In medieval times, it was thus referenced as Slavic Jerusalem.
Far fewer than 365 churches remain, but Ohrid still impresses with its collection. Today, the city is the prime summer vacation spot for both Macedonians and foreign visitors, its climate ideal and its idyllic lakeside setting hard to resist.
