Postcard from Macedonia!
Today I got a beautiful postcard from Macedonia! The card features a nighttime view of St. Clement's monastery in Plaosnik, Ohrid. St. Clement, the first Slavic bishop and the founder of the Macedonian Orthodox Church, built the church in 893. It was dedicated to St. Panteleimon. A nice matching stamp was used! Thanks Ana!

Today I got a really nice card from Macedonia! It is known officially as the Republic of Macedonia. It is landlocked and located in the Balkan peninsula. The card shows some views of the country, its flag, and a map of major cities. Skopje is the country's capital. Thanks Ana!
