Day of Wine

Maligrad is the second major island in Lake Prespa, along with the larger Golem Grad on the Macedonian side. It has an area of five hectares (12 acres) containing a large cliff, caves, trees, and an area of sand. Maligrad is close to the shore, near Shulin to the northwest and Pustec to the southwest.

This Orthodox cave church was built in 1369 by Serbian nobleman Kesar Novak, though there is an older preserved inscription in the apse of the church dating from 1345. A fresco on the interior depicts Novak's family. The western facade was painted in 1607. The church is built within a cave overlooking the lake.

Pustec's central square, which is under reconstruction, surrounds the large Church of Saint Michael the Archangel, an attractive church built in the early 2000s on the place of an older church built in 1754 but destroyed in a fire in 1865. It was built of stone and brick and has a red roof.

Half of this church, north of the village, is built into a rocky hill standing above the water. Only fragments remain of the original frescoes. The fresco of St Nicholas was redone in the 19th century.

This church, not to be confused with the church in the centre of Pustec, was built completely into a cave outside the village on the lakeshore. The oldest frescoes in the church date from the 12th century. It is a 5-km (3-mi) boat ride from the village of Pustec.

Located east of Tuminec just inside the border with North Macedonia, this monastery got its present appearance in 1888, although a cave church of the same name 100 meters (110 yards) north of the monastery complex dates from the 14th century. The cave church stands 10 m (33 ft) tall and contains many large frescoes. The monastery has not had monks since 1898.
