Photographer’s Note

The church of St Panteleimon and St Clement of Ohrid, on the Plaoshnik hill, in Ohrid.
The old church - of which this one is a kind of reconstruction, it is built at the very place where the old one was constructed - is believed to be the original church where the education of the Slavs began, i.e. this is the place of the ancient University of St Clement - the first University of the Slavs. Nowadays the construction of the University itself is up to begin as a monument in memory of St Clement and his work.
