Skopje Vacation Guide

In its 2,500 years of existence, Macedonia’s welcoming capital city has had many different incarnations. All of them – from Roman to Byzantine, from Ottoman to Yugoslav – have left indelible traces on the city, as is evidenced by Skopje’s varied architecture and its mix of cultures.

Here one can find sleek modern hotels above cobblestoned Ottoman streets, stately neoclassical homes right around the corner from grand old Yugoslav-era buildings, chic cafes, shopping malls and brightly-colored new offices, red-bricked Byzantine churches and rounded Turkish mosques.

The concentrated complexity of Skopje today entices visitors, offering a great variety of things to see and do and constantly reminding of the city’s storied past.

The world’s best cities all contain at least one secluded natural escape. Skopje has two – a long, tree-lined park along the river, and the forested hills of Mt. Vodno, which overlooks the city from the southwest and offers excellent hiking and wilderness serenity within walking distance of downtown Skopje. The summit of Mt. Vodno is also crowned by the enormous Millennium Cross that presides over the city. From here one gets even more magnificent views of Macedonia’s capital.

Skopje also boasts reliable public transportation and taxis, as well as a plethora of modern internet cafes for keeping in touch with the folks back home. And it is also one of the safest cities in Europe.

MONDAY We arrived at the border crossing 'Garljano' which is half way between Sofia and FYR Macedonia capital of Skopje. This was probably one of the longest border crossing I have come across to date. It was mainly the Bulgarian side which took the longest, which is strange for a exit out of a c…

There isn't much to see in Skopje. The city has a run down feel, with the parks overgrown and rubbish strewn along the sidewalk. People are friendly though and life is bubbles through in unexpected corners.The first place we came to was an ancient Turkish bath, which now houses the art museum. It h…
