Ohrid Old Town

The historic core of Ohrid, with stone-paved streets, traditional 19th-century houses, and numerous churches dating from the Byzantine period. A walk through the old town offers a unique blend of UNESCO heritage, local culture, and views over Lake Ohrid. The old town has been under UNESCO protection since 1979 — one of the rare sites with dual status (cultural and natural). Most beautiful in the morning before the crowds, or at sunset.
