Country
North Macedonia can astonish you with its beauty that you have never seen before. It is listed as one of the top destinations to visit since it is the second most Mountainous country in the world and split in half by the longest river, the Vardar that flows North to South and emptying in the Aegean Sea, filled with more than 50 lakes. The price trophy of the country would have to be Lake Ohrid; one of the oldest and deepest lakes in Europe. The Republic of Macedonia is famous for two things: Tobacco and Opium and well known for its history as one of the greatest empires, medieval monasteries and delicious food. Wikipedia
