Diving in Lake Ohrid: A Blast of Macedonia’s Past

Lake-Ohrid-Macedonia
Lake Ohrid, said to be Europe’s oldest lake, straddles the border between Albania and Macedonia. The Ohrid region is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the quaint lakeside town is one of the most popular places to visit in the Balkans, with damn good reason. Over 250 archaeological sites with artifacts dating back to the Neolithic period have been excavated.

Ohrid is an archaeological treasure trove.

It’s also, a freaking beautiful place.
