There are many walks and sights to see near the main town center. From the castle at the top of the hill, numerous historical chuches and ruins scattered around the town, some dating to Roman times, to the boat tours around the lake. A poplular place to visit is the monastery near the border with Albania, where monks created the Cryllic alphabet. This is on the southside of the lake and is a great 50km roundtrip boat ride for 8 euro, with a few hours to enjoy the monastary and beaches there. There was also another boat directly to the Albanian side of the lake for 10 euro one way for those travelling that direction after Macedonia. Overall, the Lake Orhid area in Macedonia is a great budget friendly place to visit with lots of historical sites, beautiful vistas, lakeside walks and swimming areas to spend some time at. There are not many places like this left in Europe and I would definitely like to head back here in the future.
Lake Ohrid quickly became one of my favorite places in Europe. After flying into Sofia, I took a minibus to the Macedonian capital Skopje and then another down to Lake Orhid. The total time was around 5 hours and costed approximately 25 euros, with most of the expense getting to Skopje. Once there it is easy to find locals renting out rooms near the lake in for as low as 4 euros per person for a double room! I found an apartment with kitchenette with lakeview for not much more. The locals are friendly and helpful; people stopped to help translate things for me on more than one occasion. The lake is amazingly beautiful and reminded me of NZ.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
