About Skopje

Skopje, the capital of North Macedonia, offers a blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. One of the most notable areas to explore is the Old Bazaar, which is the largest bazaar in the Balkans. Here, visitors can wander through narrow streets lined with shops, cafes, and mosques, experiencing the city’s Ottoman heritage.

Another significant landmark is the Stone Bridge, which connects the old and new parts of the city. This historic structure, built in the 15th century, is an iconic symbol of Skopje and provides picturesque views of the Vardar River.

For those interested in history, the Museum of the Macedonian Struggle offers insight into the country's past, showcasing the fight for independence and national identity. Nearby, the Memorial House of Mother Teresa pays tribute to the Nobel Peace Prize laureate who was born in Skopje. This museum includes a small exhibition about her life and work.

Nature enthusiasts can visit Mount Vodno, where a cable car ride offers panoramic views of Skopje and the surrounding landscape. At the summit, the Millennium Cross stands as a prominent landmark and a great spot for hiking and photography.

Cultural experiences abound in Skopje, with numerous festivals and events throughout the year. The Macedonian National Theatre and the National Gallery of Macedonia are excellent places to appreciate local art and performances.

Finally, the city's vibrant culinary scene invites visitors to try traditional Macedonian dishes, such as tavče gravče and ajvar, in various restaurants and taverns around the city. Each of these experiences contributes to a deeper understanding of Skopje's rich cultural tapestry.
