Along the shore of Lake Ohrid lies this Bay of Bones museum, reconstructing a prehistoric village built over the water whose remains were found at the lake floor and some of which now sit in an on-land museum behind us as we look at the walkway / bridge across the water that takes us out to the immersive museum. Below more photos of the houses and views from the reconstructed village.
We’re back to Tsar Samuel’s Fortress, at the top of a lovely hill overlooking Ohrid City. The passage of time is evident in the nature of this building, and in the fact that it’s nearly two months since I first showed you this lovely location and well over a month since I returned to my regular work life in A’dam. The photos we showed in that prior post came from our first visit, when the fortress was closed. As you’ll see, on the day we could go in, the weather was a good deal moodier :-).
Here you’ve got it as vapor in the sky, solid on the ground and liquid down in the lake. Pretty amazing, H2O, really. And a correction: the whole mountain is Galicica. The peak behind me in the photo above is what’s called Magaro, a subset of Galicica. And in the gallery below, you’ll be seeing some of Lake Prespa as well as good ol’ Ohrid which we got to know better.
(so much world, so little time....)
