Ohrid Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Jerusalem in the Balkans: Ohrid , who had 365 churches, if I didnt come to Ohrid, I dont know that there are still 365 churches in this place in the world. I heard that such believers can Going to churches in different churches every day, and therefore, Ohrid is named "Jerusalem in the Balkans." Today, although there are not so many churches, the ancient city of Ohrid is not big in itself. You can see a church without a few steps. There are many ancient buildings and places of interest. The key to is that prices are also very moving. It is also a European country. The big bottle of Coke here is only about 6 yuan.

A small travel destination in Northern Macedonia: A sunset in Ohrid North Macedonia may sound a bit garbled because it has just changed its name. If this trip is not through this country, I will not be interested in it. Select Ohrid as a transit station, purely because you see a lake on the map, but it is more pleasant to come here. On the first day, I met a good weather and watched a sunset by the lake. The best place to watch the sunset is in St. John's Church. In summer, the sunset time is around 8pm, just around 7:30, because this attraction is relatively small, there are not many tourists, so you can enjoy the sunset time. . How to get there: There is a direct car from Ohrid to Tirana, but the best way is to drive by car.

spectacular view from the fortress

overlooking the city of ohrid and lake ohrid. this is one of the most important fortification in the history. now it’s a major tourist attraction, which located in the very centre of the old town of Ohrid. I got up early to get there right before it opens. in the morning, the sun was not strong, it was really nice to walk around. inside of the fortress, there are few lookouts where you can overlook the city, the mountains and beautiful lake Ohrid. since it only takes around 10-15 mins to go uphill to visit this fortress, I do recommend everyone who is in town to visit this place. and there is one cafe right next to the entrance, you can grab some drinks before or after your visit. #passionpassport #gooutside #mountainview #fortress #macedonia

Romantic sunset spot in Ohrid

this is a very chill place where you can relax and chill with your friends and family. We came here on a walking tour from the hostel. apparently this is the place to watch sunset in Ohrid. There is nothing much to do around, but the view is stunning from this church. You can enjoy the view of the lake, and sometimes, fishing boats or kayaks. there are few ways to get there, you can either go straight there from the town, which you can walk by the lake or walking through the old town of Ohrid, or you can go there from samuel’s fortress, where you walk pass though the pine forest and enjoy the natural beauty of ohrid. there is no bars or shops next to the church, so I recommend that you can bring your own drinks and snacks to go up there and chill. it’s always open, so you can go there either morning, during the day or in the evening #passionpassport #staycation #gooutside #church
