itinerary by Martin Hornak
Forget your ideas about polished European capitals. Skopje is a city full of contrasts, wild energy, beautiful nature, as well as hospitable people and excellent local cuisine, just like the rest of the Balkan region. Skopje might strike you as a city still searching for its true identity. You'll find everything here, from a chaotic Ottoman bazaar scented with coffee and spices, to a center featuring a historic stone bridge, all the way to pompous and kitschy buildings trying to mimic antiquity. It’s not a perfect city, but that’s exactly what makes it one of the most interesting spots in the Balkans. If you're looking for an authentic experience away from tourist stereotypes, you've come to the right place. Plus, you'll find the highest concentration of statues and monuments you've ever seen, and another interesting fact is that Mother Teresa was born here.
Skopje isn't love at first sight, but I guarantee you’ll remember this visit for a long time!
