Macedonia: Ohrid Region

On Tuesday I got three postcards: one from Macedonia, one from Germany and one from Japan.

The card from Macedonia shows various views of the Ohrid region. Lake Ohrid is a lake located on the Albanian-Macedonian border. It is the largest lake of Macedonia and one of the oldest and deepest lakes in Europe. Ohrid is the largest town on the lake. It is also the eight-largest city of Macedonia and an important centre of tourism. The Natural and Cultural Heritage of the Ohrid region is since 1979 on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
