Skopje

Pearl of the Balkans - the city of Skopje has earned such a name. The capital of North Macedonia has a lot to offer. The city is very diverse and offers many different types of enjoyment. Different nationalities live here in one place, and you can observe Christian and Islamic architecture side by side. Diversity here was mainly influenced by the past, which was not exactly pleasant. In the surroundings you will find breath-taking nature, mountains, parks and much more. It is worth a look outside the city.

What not to miss in Skopje

You could start your first steps in the old town, where you can soak up the real home atmosphere. When you cross the iconic stone bridge, you can observe several important churches such as St. Dimitrija church or the church of St. Salvation. Nearby is the Mustafa Pasha Mosque, which you can only see from the outside.

In the more modern part of the city, there is a square with the largest statue of the famous Alexander the Great. On the hill you can observe the old Kale fortress, which, even though only the walls and tower, offers a beautiful view of the city and its surroundings. You can also visit some behind the museum. Among the most interesting ones is the Museum of Macedonia, where there is an important collection of the country's history or an archaeological museum.

And if you get tired of the city and buildings, go out into the nature. The surrounding nature is impressive. Go on a trek to Vondno hill with a huge metal cross on top or visit the Matka canyon. In the canyon, you can go on various hikes, hike up the hills for views, or watch the rocks from kayaks on the water.
