Tour description

I offer you a tour of the Old Bazaar, the biggest Turkish bazaar in the Balkans. It is an important cultural heritage site witnessing the city's rich history and mix of cultures. In this place you can enter a church and a mosque  which are right next to another, enjoy a walk through a museum and a gallery and try local meals and sweets. it is packed with shops, cafes and local restaurants. It is one of the symbols of Skopje, witnessing important events from the past and present. Even today it is a living monument, vibrant with life and people from different ethnic background and cultures. During night it becomes a place filled with bars, which you can visit for a good music and drink.
