North Macedonia Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

Jerusalem in the Balkans: Ohrid , who had 365 churches, if I didnt come to Ohrid, I dont know that there are still 365 churches in this place in the world. I heard that such believers can Going to churches in different churches every day, and therefore, Ohrid is named "Jerusalem in the Balkans." Today, although there are not so many churches, the ancient city of Ohrid is not big in itself. You can see a church without a few steps. There are many ancient buildings and places of interest. The key to is that prices are also very moving. It is also a European country. The big bottle of Coke here is only about 6 yuan.

A small travel destination in Northern Macedonia: A sunset in Ohrid North Macedonia may sound a bit garbled because it has just changed its name. If this trip is not through this country, I will not be interested in it. Select Ohrid as a transit station, purely because you see a lake on the map, but it is more pleasant to come here. On the first day, I met a good weather and watched a sunset by the lake. The best place to watch the sunset is in St. John's Church. In summer, the sunset time is around 8pm, just around 7:30, because this attraction is relatively small, there are not many tourists, so you can enjoy the sunset time. . How to get there: There is a direct car from Ohrid to Tirana, but the best way is to drive by car.

You can't miss me ah Just a billboard. The capital of Macedonia, Skopje, is the most comfortable I have seen in these Eastern European countries. The main body of white is very sunny, actually has Arc de Triomphe, a bit Great. In fact, the name of the Republic of Macedonia has now been changed to the Republic of Northern Macedonia, The reason is because Greece does not recognize, the ancient Macedonians are part of Greek culture, but today the North Macedonia is partly Slavic culture. This made Greece very uncomfortable. It has always voted for Macedonia to enter NATO. The Macedonians are also very embarrassed. If they cant enter the EU, they will not be able to enter the EU. So its not too poor, so they changed their name to the Northern Macedonia. It is. Ok, I have to continue to play rough, Gu Nai!

Skopje, the capital of Macedonia, is simply a sculpture museum. One of the juggles in Macedonia is this: Question: "How many statues are there in Skopje?" A: "I don't know, but I think the statue is more than people. More! Skopjes statues are everywhere, they inadvertently become the citys tourist attractions, the two most famous of them: the first is Alexander the Greats father, Philip II, who In the heart of the city, below is a well-designed fountain; the second is the priestess of ancient civilization, located in the center of the most prominent bridge. These ubiquitous monuments were established by the former Macedonian government as part of its 2014 Skopje flagship project. Former government leaders believe that these neoclassical monuments will inspire local pride, promote tourism, and build strong Macedonian characteristics. However, this expensive statue is for people to pay, causing strong dissatisfaction among locals.
