Destination story
A place with its own rhythm.
Ohrid sits on one of Europe's oldest and deepest lakes, and both the town and the lake are listed by UNESCO for their nature and culture. Once said to have 365 churches, the town is full of Byzantine churches, monasteries, an ancient theatre and the hilltop Samuel's Fortress. Summer evenings by the lake, crystal-clear water and a long tradition of festivals make Ohrid a favourite destination for international groups. Music and dance are an essential part of local life.
