This elegant town is located in the south east of Albania, at the foot of Mokra Gora mountain, and it overlooks the large Lake Ohrid, UNESCO-designated natural and cultural heritage site. During the summer the climate is cool, and the unique lake habitat originated a rich, peculiar flora and fauna, such as the Ohrid trout (Koran), which can be tasted in several local recipes. Several famous Albanian artists, writers, poets and painters were born in Pogradec.

You can visit the ruins of Pogradec Castle and the nearby cultural sites, such as the Paleochristian Church in Lin, famous for its mosaics, the majestic Illyrian tombs in Selca and the Golic bridge.
