Macedonia, also referred to as the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, is a mountainous region in the Balkans. Not surprisingly, it’s a popular skiing and hiking destination. Come to Macedonia to relax, or to visit a number of ancient cities, including Heraclea Lyncestis – founded in the middle of the 4th century in honour of Heracles. Wander around Skopje, the country’s capital to take in a number of old fortresses and war monuments, or go to visit Lake Ohrid – an important cultural center and Episcopal city. Macedonia is the place to go to see a number of multiple religious sites, including Orthodox churches and mosques, to see bazaars, and to appreciate the traces left behind by the various empires through the ages.

Skopje rules - my favorite place to vacation when I am working in Helsinki - great food, wonderful Balkan music outdoor nightclubs in the park, and tons of outdoor bars along the river in the new city - all at discount prices, and great food if you love fatty slabs of delicious meat, as I do!  Give me Skopje anyday!  Macedonia is the only place in Southern Europe worth visiting for rest and relaxation - don't waste time on Greece and Italy!

Prilep with its view from the nearby mountain is a nice small city; sights to note are the statue of Alexander the Great next to what looks like an old Roman wall... dine at Macedonia House for an insight into the local culture.

Please be careful walking the streets in Struga as there is a lot of gang rivalry in this town.
