Visit Ohrid our Macedonian (European) Jerusalem. Each day, another church(monastery, basilica). Day by day and you have visited 365 churches.
Today, you should visit St. Pantelejmon, church built by St. Clement Of Ohrid (some historians belive he was born in Southern Macedonia). St. Clement and St. Naum were two Macedonian students of St. Methodius who followed him during his mission in Moravia. Founder of the First Slavic University located on Plaosnik in Ohrid..
Unfortunately the Roman bath with the water channeling system to and aquaduct and large part of the mosaic is closed for archelogical work. The sites also in the process of constructing a new museum and theological university, so it felt a bit like a construction sites. Look out for the catacomb in the newly restored church, and the tombs of a kind and generous Muslim family who instead of paying tax, built mosque, soup-kitchen for poor and orphanage. Alot of history, a nice place that requires a good guide.
A beautiful church located near the Ohrid Lake.
It' s a pretty and well maintained church. The entrance fee of 100MKD is a bit steep and the inside is very crowded during the day hours in summer. But definetely wirth a visit.
Great view from here and easy to find
Great architecture of this orthodox christian church on good location. This is the main or at least main church in Ohrid. Beside the church there is Basilica ( Early christian church). When you are in Ohrid you must visit this place.
The place is marvellous. In the church is the grave of Saint Kliment Ohridski.
Rare piece of Macedonian architecture, simply beautiful and unique at the same time. It's not just a church, it's part of the Macedonian history of early education and knowledge.
Most important macedonian saint St. Clement build his church on this same spot, and its where his grave is today. Sit for a moment and enjoy the view or many cultural layers and the wonder of nature Ohrid!
