The Church of Saint John the Theologian, also known as Sveti Jovan Kaneo, is a stunning Orthodox church perched on a cliff overlooking Lake Ohrid, offering breathtaking views and iconic photo opportunities. Accessibility to the church involves navigating a cobblestone path, which may be challenging for those with mobility issues. Visiting solo allows for quiet contemplation, but a guided tour can provide historical and architectural context. The church is generally open year-round, but weather conditions can affect accessibility during winter. Entrance fees are minimal, typically a few euros. A typical visit lasts about an hour, allowing time to admire the frescoes and enjoy the panoramic scenery. Consider visiting during sunrise or sunset for particularly spectacular views.
