Skopje is the capital and largest city of the Republic of North Macedonia, located in the center of the Balkan Peninsula, on the banks of the Vardar River. As the political, economic and cultural center of the country, Skopje has a population of approximately 500,000 and combines a long history with modern development.
Dating back to Roman times, Skopje was ruled by the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires, leaving behind a rich heritage. The Old Town retains its Ottoman-style architecture and ancient bazaars, while the New Town, rebuilt after the 1963 earthquake, is filled with Socialist Realist architecture. Landmarks include the Stone Bridge, Skopje Castle and the huge sculpture of the "Skopje 2014" project.
The city's economy is dominated by services, industry and tourism, with notable attractions such as Macedonia Square, the Mother Teresa Memorial and the Vardar Riverside Park. Skopje is a hub for exploring the Balkans, attracting tourists with its multiculturalism, mild climate and low travel costs.
