Municipality Star Dojran is situated in the
last south-east point of our country at the Greek border.
The place is 28km from Gevgelija, 170km from Skopje and 70km
from Thessaloniki.
This region has population since the stone age and there are
lots of objects and artifacts found in this region. In the
region around the lake during the centuries is created specific
culture with original living tradition, fishing, catering
and a dialect. The total population is about 5000 inhabitants
while during the summer period this number expands to 40000
visitors normally. This number doesn't count daily and weekend
visitors.
This lake is one of the oldest in the world and because of
its specialty in geological, botanical, zoological content
as well as the soft and healthy climate,
the construction and function of each heavy industry object
is strictly forbidden just to protect the environment's ecological
balance. Near the lake there are five East Macedonian municipalities
as: Strumica, Gevgelija, Valandovo, Bogdanci and Star Dojran
with a population of more than 150000. From the other side
of the border on the territory of Republic of Greece traditional
and administrative are connected such places as Doirani, Drosato,
Kilkis, Verija, Pelas, Katerini, and others connected to Lake
Dojran with a population of 790000, but the main amount of
our visitors come from Thessalonika with a population of around
1000000 people.
