Beautiful place, the castle ruling over the lake, a monastery further on that shows the quietness of the place... Really deserves a visit
2. St. Jovan Kaneo

Reviewed By TerraVR - Varna, Bulgaria
As if landed on a hill, you can see it everywhere - if you are above it, if you are on a boat tour (the view is amazing at sunset), from both shores. From the playground in front of the church the view is also amazing, it is no accident a favorite decor for wedding photos. The church itself is in a typical orthodox style, renovated, much attended. You can reach it from downtown or from the fortress, but you must. You will not regret it.
3. Monastery of Saint Naum

Svet Naum was high on my list of places to visit while in ohrid. The church sits on top of the hill built in the 16th century. It’s the oldest Balkan church. Peaceful and tranquil surroundings. Surround by beautiful gardens and an amazing view of lake ohrid. I would suggest bringing your swimmers and spending the day at Svet Naum. You can have a relaxing boat ride along the lake, enjoy lunch at the many restaurants, shop at the many survivor stores, take a swim in ohrid lake, explore the churches or just chill out at one of the cafes enjoying the scenery. We actually visited Svet Naum twice and I would go again. Absolutely beautiful. Enjoyment for the whole family

6. Heraclea

Although the famous mosaics of Heraclea Lyncestis are covered during the wintertime, this important archeological site is definitely a must see in this part of Macedonia. An important historical and archeological site dating from the peak of Hellenistic period, the Heraclea will offer you an in-depth insight into the life and architecture of that period, which may not be found in such a good shape in this part of the Balkans. I've visited this place for the second time and I didn't regret it at all, since it offers a wonderful opportunity to visit a revival of ancient times, although in the form of remains of an old and important historical site. All in all, Heraclea is totally worth a visit, especially if you're exploring the beautiful city of Bitola!
7. Millennium Cross

We took a taxi from city centre up to Mount Vodno and then up the mountain with the cable car where we spent 1 hour. Enough time to take photos and grab a coffee/tea as the wind is quite chilly up there. If travelling with a taxi, it would be best if you agree with the driver to wait for you to go back down to the city centre.
8. Old Bazaar, Skopje

This is a very short walk from the center of town and there are lots of interesting shops selling souvenirs and handicrafts. There are also lots of coffee shops and restaurants, a whole street of gold and jewelry stores, a fresh food market (spices, vegetables, etc) and plenty of interesting people watching on pedestrianized streets.

10. Shirok Sokak Street

Reviewed By IgorMarkovic - Smederevo, Serbia
Bitola's main pedestrian zone, usually know as Širok sokak, is probably one of the most beutiful walking areas in this part of the Balkans, in Macedonia for sure. It is known for architecturally and aesthetically beautiful buildings and numerous honorary consulates. It is a vibrant part of the city which combines both the traditional architecture with modern facilities. It is full of caffees, restaurants, but also museums and interesting oldfashioned workshops. All in all, take a slow walk and enjoy its beauty, you won't regret it. All recommendations!
