If you want to know more about Ohrid!

Ohrid is the jewel of Macedonia’s crown. All the major attractions are located among the narrow streets of

the Old Town lined with restaurants and cafés. The lake is so large and so deep that one might mistake it

for a small sea, surrounded with beautiful beaches. And if you are a party animal and want to party until

the morning hours, Ohrid is definitely the place to be with its numerous beach parties. Because of the

uniqueness of Lake Ohrid and the city, they are part of UNESCO, as one of the few places on the list “World

Inheritance”.
