Macedonian Roadtrip | Galicica National Park, Lake Prespa + Krusevo
If you're looking for an adventure in the Balkans, make sure you check out Macedonia! It is well worth renting a car so you have more freedom to explore more off the beaten track places where public transit might not go. In today's video I take you guys on a tour of the beautiful Galicica National Park which borders both Lake Ohrid and Lake Prespa. Since I've already done videos about Lake Ohrid, I decided to go to the shores of Lake Prespa because it too is beautiful and has an interesting history. Next up was Krusevo which is a town high up in the mountains where you can really get a sense of traditional Macedonian culture and learn about how they became an independent nation. Hope you guys enjoy the video! xx

North Macedonia
MAP OF SKOPJE
Skopje , Macedonian: Скопје ; Albanian: Shkup) is the capital and largest city of North Macedonia. It is the country's political, cultural, economic, and academic centre.
The territory of Skopje has been inhabited since at least 4000 BC; remains of Neolithic settlements have been found within the old Kale Fortress that overlooks the modern city centre. Originally a Paeonian city, Scupi became the capital of Dardania in the second century BC. On the eve of the 1st century AD, the settlement was seized by the Romans and became a military camp. When the Roman Empire was divided into eastern and western halves in 395 AD, Scupi came under Byzantine rule from Constantinople. During much of the early medieval period, the town was contested between the Byzantines and the Bulgarian Empire, whose capital it was between 972 and 992.
From 1282, the town was part of the Serbian Empire, and acted as its capital city from 1346 to 1371. In 1392, Skopje was conquered by the Ottoman Turks, who called it Üsküb (اسکوب). The town stayed under Ottoman control for over 500 years, serving as the capital of the pashasanjak of Üsküp and later the Vilayet of Kosovo. In 1912, it was annexed by the Kingdom of Serbia during the Balkan Wars.[7] During the First World War the city was seized by the Kingdom of Bulgaria, and, after the war, it became part of the newly formed Kingdom of Yugoslavia as the capital of Vardarska Banovina. In the Second World War the city was again captured by Bulgaria and in 1945 became the capital of SR Macedonia, a federated state within the Yugoslavia. The city developed rapidly, but this was interrupted in 1963 when it was hit by a disastrous earthquake.
Skopje is on the upper course of the Vardar River, and is on a major north–south Balkan route between Belgrade and Athens. It is a centre for metal-processing, chemical, timber, textile, leather, and printing industries. Industrial development of the city has been accompanied by development of the trade, logistics, and banking sectors, as well as an emphasis on the fields of transportation, culture and sport. According to the last official census from 2021, Skopje had a population of 422,540 inhabitants in its urban area and 526,502 in ten municipalities that form the city and, beside Skopje, include many other less urbanized and rural settlements some of which are 20 km (12 mi) away from the city itself or even border the neighbouring Kosovo. Skopje was first divided into administrative units in 1945, but the first municipalities were created in 1976. They were five: Centar, Čair, Karpoš, Gazi Baba and Kisela Voda. After the independence of the Republic of Macedonia, power was centralized and municipalities lost much of their competences. A 1996 law restored them and created two new municipalities: Ǵorče Petrov and Šuto Orizari. After the insurgency between Albanian rebels and Macedonian forces in 2001, a new law was enacted in 2004 to incorporate Saraj Municipality into the City of Skopje. Saraj is mostly populated by Albanians and, since then, Albanians represent more than 20% of the city population. Thus Albanian became the second official language of the city administration, something which was one of the claims of the Albanian rebels. The same year, Aerodrom Municipality separated itself from Kisela Voda, and Butel Municipality from Čair.
Municipalities are administered by a council of 23 members elected every four years. They also have a mayor and several departments (education, culture, finances...). The mayor primarily deals with these departments.
Aerodrom
Butel
Centar
Čair
Gazi Baba
Ǵorče Petrov
Karpoš
Kisela Voda
Saraj
Šuto Orizari As the capital and largest city of North Macedonia, Skopje has many major sporting facilities. The city has three large swimming pools, two of which feature Olympic pools. These pools are particularly relevant to coaching water polo teams. Skopje also boasts many football stadiums, like Ilinden in Čair and Železarnica, which can accommodate between 4,000 and 4,500 spectators. The basketball court Kale can accommodate 2,200 people and the court of Jane Sandanski has a 6,000 seat capacity.
The Toše Proeski Arena
The largest stadium remains Toše Proeski Arena. The stadium, built in 1947 and named until 2008, City Stadium Skopje experienced a total renovation, begun in 2009 to meet the standards of FIFA. Fully renovated the stadium contains 33,460 seats, and a health spa and fitness area. The Boris Trajkovski Sports Center is the largest sports complex in the country. It was opened in 2008 and named after former president Boris Trajkovski, who died in 2004. It includes rooms dedicated to handball, basketball and volleyball and host 6,250 seats, a bowling alley, a fitness area and an ice hockey court. Its main hall, which regularly hosts concerts, holds around 10,000 people.

Macedonia Travel | Top Things to do
Macedonia is a relatively small country with Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, Kosovo and Serbia as it's neighbors. Economically it is a mix of all those countries. But it's not as developed as Bulgaria and it doesn't have the unemployment rates of Albania.
Because Macedonia is completely landlocked there is a strong focus for tourism on Ohrid Lake and Prespa Lake with the city of Ohrid being the touristic capital of the country.
However Macedonia has so much more to offer!
Macedonian cuisine is still somewhat post Sovjet which means there are some poor mans dishes with organ meat mixed with the new influences of fast food like pizza and hamburgers. They have freshly baked bread and Burek (a pastry dish with spinach, cheese or meat inside).
The low population of Macedonia results in very much unspoiled nature.
Costs of accommodation as in the rest of the Balkans is quite affordable. For as little as 20 euro a night you can get a fully furnished apartment.
After a dispute with Greece about the name Macedonia the government recently changed the name of the country to: North Macedonia. Alternatively the country is referred to as FYROM (Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia) much to the disliking of the Macedonian people who now have to spend money to change license plates, documents and passport.
Like in other Balkan countries Macedonian people are very welcoming and friendly.

Skopje - Just Impressions - Camping Bellevue in Ilinden - Walk in Skopje and towards the Old Town.
After Tigger an I left from Vranje and arrived in Skopje, we woke up the next morning and I managed to take a few aerial shots of Camping at Hotel Bellevue. Before getting deep into work, I also walked for a few impressions in the City Center. Sorry for bumpy videos, I accidentally turned off Rocksteady on the cam and I had no time for retaking the shots.
