SOME VENUE DETAILS
Laid on the banks of the Europe oldest lake, Ohrid, the city of
UNESCO, has been a cradle of many civilizations since the neolith
times. Today Ohrid is famous by the lake itself, by the 19th century
preserved architecture, the medieval city walls, Roman amphitheatre,
365 churches, gallery of unique icons... and the excellent clubs.
Visiting Ohrid for a cultural manager is opportunity to check the new
cultural tourist image of the old city of UNESCO and to see examples
of art and culture operating in new decentralized conditions.
In early September, Ohrid is still hot town, ideal for swimming and
partying. The accommodation range between 15-30 euros in the city
hotels and 5-8 euros in private rooms (in the old part of the town).
The restaurants are famous for their panorama, local spirit... and
huge dishes for cheap prices. Gourmets shouldn’t miss the unique
plates (as endemic Ohrid trout and fish thick soup).
Skopje, the capital of Macedonia, (with bus, train and air
connections) would be the meting point. For all bus travel to Ohrid
would be organized. Those with loose agenda can meet their local
Oracle friends in Skopje, have cultural audits, sightseeing or (cheap)
shopping.
Those seeking for cheaper flights could alternatively land in
Thessalonica, Greece. For a significant number of Oracle members
choosing this alternative we could organize transport to Ohrid.
