The town of Ohrid is the Macedonian tourist mecca. Some 30 'cultural monuments' in the area keep visitors busy. Predictably, the oldest ruins readily seen are Roman. Lihnidos (Ohrid) was on the Via Egnatia, which connected the Adriatic to the Aegean.
Macedonia boasts Lake Ohrid, a natural tectonic lake which is the deepest lake in Europe and one of the world's oldest. A third of its surface area belongs to Albania. The Macedonian section of the lake is beautiful, with striking vistas of the water from the beach and hills.
