    Entrance fee is 100 dinars, the place is an archeological site with very little to see and close to nothing as explanation. You end up looking at a bunch of rocks that have no meaning. The view of the lake is spectacular but the ensemble itself is poorly maintained

    An important archaeological historical site, dating back to the eighth century BC, with artefacts discovered from the Hellenistic culture, as well as from the Roman and early Christian times. For detailed information you can get on Google because of the lack of professional guides, and even a quality organization is missing at all! This greatly reduces the tourist attractiveness of the site. But that's why you will need to pay a ticket, for which you will not receive any use of a public toilet, but you can get a rough response from the people who care about the site !!!

    Be careful when a local guide approaches you and offers to guide you around the site. He will tell you a bunch of unrelated nonsense. In return, he asks for a tip that you determine, but if he is not satisfied with the height, becomes unpleasant. Spoils the impression of the site, which is significant. Oh yes, that local guide considers himself a philosopher.

    The archaeological site will give you a glimpse into the Roman and some more contemporary history of Ochrid. While if offers an interesting view to a couple of interesting sites - a church, tombs, a basilica, the access to it is not the best experience you can get. In the summer of 2017 the road that leads to the site is still under construction and everything is very dusty. Additionally, the Roman mosaics that are on display have been exhibited in a way that potentially would not preserve them for a long time. As you can see from the pictures they are already covered with dust and seem to be very exposed to various weather conditions which is the main reason I rate the sight with 3 stars.

    Gorgeous church with some impressive ruins and mosaics. In use right now and the chanting inside the church could be described as divine. Fairly easy to walk to, and a great historical area that's being rebuilt and renovated.

    An archeological site with the monastery, there is still work going on and more interesting artefacts being found. There are very well preserved mosaics that you can see which have been left in situ to view and admire. Worth visiting.

    The ancient city of Plaosnik is located on the UNESCO World Heritage List with its magnificent history dating back to Alexander the First. In the 9th century, the Orthodox Pantelejmon Church built during the period of the 1st Bulgarian Kingdom was converted into a mosque by Sinan Çelebi during the Ottoman Empire in the 15th century. In 2002, the State of Macedonia rebuilt the church in accordance with its original by demolishing the mosque in the church area.

    (Translated by Google) I'm lost, but I'm glad I went. You can enjoy Ohrid town and Lake Ohrid at the same time. However, the stairs going up to the castle wall are rather narrow and steep, so you need physical strength. (Original) 迷ったけれど行ってよかった砦。 オフリドの町とオフリド湖を同時に堪能できます。 しかし城壁に上る階段は結構狭くて急こう配なので、体力が必要じゃ。

👍 Here in Ohrid I really felt good! Breathtaking views, ancient sites and monuments to visit, excellent restaurants and night clubs, live music, cheerful and peaceful people, magnificent wines, an enchanted lake to contemplate. I have nothing to say except that it was a memorable stay on my tour.
