Visitors are invariably impressed by St, Sophias’s Church, one of the most important medieval buildings. Both the city and lake of Ohrid are listed as UNESCO world and nature heritages.

1,500²m large mosaics immortalising the secret symbols of Christianity can be seen at the Roman excavation sites in Heraclea.
