About Ohrid Fortress

The 4th–10th century fortress of Tsar Samuel above Ohrid town — restored medieval walls with extraordinary panoramic views of the lake, the Albanian mountains across the water, and the town below. Free to walk to from the old bazaar; the sunset from the fortress walls is unmissable.
