Skopje

A capital that rebuilt itself after an earthquake with more statues than seems strictly necessary, an Ottoman old bazaar still trading the old way, and a canyon an hour out for the day you want out of the city.
The best time to visit Skopje is Apr–Jun, Sep–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 21°C (69°F).
