Ohrid (, (マケドニア語:Охрид) ) is a city in the Republic of Macedonia and the seat of Ohrid Municipality. It is the largest city on Lake Ohrid and the eighth-largest city in the country with over 42,000 inhabitants as of 2002. Ohrid is notable for once having had 365 churches, one for each day of the year, and has been referred to as a "Jerusalem (of the Balkans)".〔(Between past and future: civil-military relations in post-communist Balkan states, Biljana Vankovska, Håkan Wiberg, I.B.Tauris, 2003, ISBN 1-86064-624-7, p. 71. )〕〔"The Mirror of the Macedonian Spirit, Zlate Petrovski, Sašo Talevski, Napredok, 2004, ISBN 978-9989-730-38-2, page 72: "... and Macedonia in the Cathedral Church St. Sofia in the Macedonian Jerusalem — Ohrid..."〕 The city is rich in picturesque houses and monuments, and tourism is predominant. It is located southwest of Skopje, west of Resen and Bitola. In 1979 and in 1980, Ohrid and Lake Ohrid were accepted as Cultural and Natural World Heritage Sites by UNESCO. In fact, Ohrid is one of only 28 sites that are part of UNESCO's World Heritage that are both Cultural and Natural sites.〔(Natural and Cultural Heritage of the Ohrid region )〕
==Name==
In antiquity the city was known under the ancient Greek name Λύχνιδος (''Lychnidos'') and Latin ''Lychnidus'',〔(Lychnĭdus ),
Harry Thurston Peck, ''Harpers Dictionary of Classical Antiquities (1898)'', on Perseus〕 probably meaning "city of light", from λυχνίς (''lychnis'', gen. ''lychnidos''), "a precious stone that emits light",〔(λυχνίς ), Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, ''A Greek-English Lexicon'', on Perseus〕 from λύχνος (''lychnos''), "lamp, portable light".〔(λύχνος ), Henry George Liddell, Robert Scott, ''A Greek-English Lexicon'', on Perseus〕 By 879 AD, the town was no longer called Lychnidos but was referred to by the Slavs as ''Ohrid'', possibly from the Slavic words ''vo hrid'', meaning "on the hill", as the ancient town of Lychnidos was at the top of the hill.〔Evans, Thammy, ''Macedonia'', Bradt Travel Guides, 2012, p.173〕〔(Municipality of Ohrid )〕 In Macedonian and the other South Slavic languages, the name of the city is ''Ohrid'' (Охрид). In Albanian, the city is known as ''Ohër'' or ''Ohri'' and in modern Greek ''Ochrida'' (Οχρίδα, Ωχρίδα) and ''Achrida'' (Αχρίδα).
