RE: UPVOTE CHALLENGE FOR HEROES - Every Day Upvote Reward of 1.2 SBD and more - #51

Greetings, appreciated @tatjanastan.
Thanks to your challenge today I was able to expand my knowledge about your land, which I only knew by name.
So, by investigating, I was able to know that:

MACEDONIA:
The pearl of the Balkans - is the city of 365 churches.
It is a small and beautiful town located in the southeast of Europe, a unique interweaving of different cultures, peoples, languages ​​and religions.

The large number of Byzantine monasteries and churches, on the one hand, and the Ottoman Turkish mosques, bazaars and baths, on the other, suggest that for a long time in Macedonia there is a coexistence between two great cultures and traditions: the Orthodox Christians and the Islamic .

I was fascinated by the Lake Ohrid (photo) is one of the tourist sites best known for its beauty and purity of water, its beautiful coves, but above all for its age and depth: it is one of the oldest in the world and the deepest d 'Europe (290 m). In these waters lives the famous Ohrid trout "ohridska pastrmka", a delicacy on the table, but protected because it is endemic. Ohrid is a treasure of UNESCO.
