At 4.8 on Google across more than five hundred reviews this is the best-rated church in Ohrid – scored higher than Kaneo, higher than St Sophia, and visited by a fraction of the number of people. If you are only going inside one church here, this is the local answer.
It stands in the upper Old Town at Gorna Porta, immediately next to the Icon Gallery, so the two work as one stop. Its place in the city's history is central: St Clement's relics were kept here before being carried up to Plaosnik in 2002.
Local tip: Do it with the Icon Gallery next door. Ohrid holds one of the most important collections of Byzantine icons anywhere, and the two buildings are a few steps apart.
