Skopje

The landscape around Skopje is a broad valley along the Vardar River, which has shaped both the urban form and local economy. The capital of North Macedonia spreads across the river’s banks, with Mount Vodno rising to the south and the Skopje Fortress overlooking the historic core. The Old Bazaar preserves a dense network of Ottoman-era streets, mosques, inns and workshops, while the Stone Bridge links it with Macedonia Square. A devastating earthquake in 1963 transformed much of the city and influenced its subsequent rebuilding.
