What is the population of Macedonia? Introduction of tourist attractions in Macedonia.

Macedonia is arguably the lowest-key country in Europe. Obviously, there are rich natural resources and cultural landscapes, but they are always hidden in the "boudoir". Many people don't know the beauty here. There are Balkan customs and Mediterranean landscapes, which are very charming.

So, having said that, are you a little curious about this place? Then, next, let Bian Xiao tell you about the tourist attractions in Macedonia.

What is the population of Macedonia?

The total population of Macedonia is 2.06 million (20 14). The main ethnic groups are Macedonians, Albanians, Turks, Gypsies and Serbs.

Introduction of scenic spots

Ohrid-the Old Capital of the First Bulgarian Empire

Ohrid is an important tourist city in Macedonia, facing Albania across the lake (Ohrid Lake). Ohrid, which was founded in the 3rd century BC, is a city with heavy historical memory, and the well-preserved Roman theater still stands in the city.

During the Middle Ages, due to the arrival of St Cyril's disciples, the city became a religious and cultural shrine of the Orthodox Church, and a large number of churches and monasteries were built during this period. Until today, these ancient buildings are still the spiritual home of believers.

Walking along the beach of Lake Ohrid and the surrounding hills is an ideal scheme to enjoy the wonderful scenery! Of course, if you want to take a sea bath, congratulations, Ohrid has the most acclaimed beach in Eastern Europe!

Skopje, the capital of Macedonia

* * * The economic capital and administrative center of the Republic of China has a population of nearly 700,000, accounting for 1/3 of the national population. In the 1963 earthquake, 80% of the cities were razed to the ground, which shocked the international community. After the disaster, with the friendly help of well-known contemporary architects, the reconstruction of Skopje started rapidly.

At the beginning of the 20th century, thanks to the huge urban development plan "Skopje 20 14", a number of brand-new museum construction schemes and the reconstruction of landmark buildings were put on the agenda, such as the Gate of Macedonia and the "Arc de Triomphe" to commemorate the glorious history of Macedonia.

Perist national park

Located in the southwest of Macedonia, this paradise is home to many wild animals and plants in this area, such as the endemic plant Macedonian pine. Winding up along the ridge, you will have a panoramic view of the Pei Ragogna Plain where Vitola is located.

This small town in the south of the Republic of China is famous for its Islamic architecture left over from the Ottoman Empire. In this nature reserve with an area of nearly 120 square kilometers, there are also a large number of precious animals, such as brown bears and Eurasian lynx, which can be called Macedonia's national treasure.

Ancient city Staby

During the Roman Empire, due to its important trade and defensive position, Staby experienced the most glorious period. Since 1924, archaeological excavations have been carried out in this city. Since then, some buildings dating back to ancient times have been rediscovered, such as theaters, spa sanatoriums and villas.

After the Romans converted to Christianity, Staby became one of the most important local parishes, and many bas-reliefs unearthed from church sites are the best proof. In the following years, Staby was invaded by the Goths again and again. In the 6th century, due to the destruction of an earthquake, the ancient city was finally submerged in the long river of history.

St Joachim Monastery in Vaud, Osogo.

This Orthodox monastery, built in the 7th century, is located in the Osogo-Vo Plateau in the northeast of Macedonia, with an altitude of 825 meters, adjacent to Bulgaria and the Republic of China. During the Ottoman invasion, the monastery was once transformed into a mosque.

The monastery was named after St. Joachim, who was one of the four Bulgarian monks who preached in this area in the 1 1 century. The monastery of St. Joachim consists of two churches, the largest of which has 12 domes, representing 12 disciples of Jesus.

In the monastery, beautiful medieval murals are covered with stone walls, which is very worth seeing!

This low-key European country, although with a small population, is also because of this. Let the architecture and landscape here be better preserved and kept natural. The low-key here also makes it quieter and more suitable for vacation and life.
