It looks a little bit like concrete buildings here but I’ve heard that there a lot of sights to discover in Skopje. Let’s checkout the city? Let’s go! Skopje is the capital of Macedonia which is located between Bulgaria and Albania. The history of the city is more than years old. “Really?” Yes, I just read it on Wikipedia! Our first stop: the old town of Skopje which shows the influence of the ottoman time with mosques. bazars and. Hmmm, Cevapcici THE landmark of Skopje is the stone bridge from the th century. But. what you can find around it looked a bit like. Disneyland: new built monuments which have been very expensive and caused several discussions with the neighboring countries. Nevertheless the fountains are quite refreshing in summer 🙂 You’ll have the best view from the Kale Fortress on a hill above the city. A good spot to enjoy the sunset. only a cold Skopsko could make us to leave. We continue our search for good beer and bromantic Sunsets in the next post with Tirana. the capital of Albania!
