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.

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.

Robimy zakupy na macedońskim osiedlu. Wyrzucono nas ze sklepu...
Na przypale, albo wcale. Tak mniej więcej wyglądało nagrywanie kolejnego odcinka o zakupach. Tym razem postanowiliśmy Wam pokazać, jakie sklepy dostępne są na macedońskich osiedlach, na przykładzie miejsca, w jakim sami mieszkamy. Niestety w trakcie nagrywania w sklepie Stokomak zostaliśmy stamtąd wyrzuceni przez jego obsługę. Mimo, że staraliśmy się nagrywać dyskretnie i bez przeszkadzania innym klientom sklepu.
Tak czy inaczej zapraszamy do oglądania. Z filmu dowiecie się, jakie ceny obowiązują w mniejszych sklepach, co można w nich kupić i gdzie najczęściej robimy zakupy.
Balkars 5000. Part 9. The weirdest city I have ever been. Skopje.
We left the Albanian Alps for Macedonia. This was a complete new adventure for us since we haven't been in Macedonia before. After we crossed the border we drove straight to the capital of Skopje.
Skopje Transport System and Visiting Vodno Mountains in North Macedonia
#publictransport #northmacedonia
In this Video I have used public transport in the city of North Macedonia to go to highest mountain peak in the country. Vodno mountains are the highest one and famous for hiking. You need to take Bus line 25 from Central bus station to reach Sredno Vodno and then take Cable car to reach Millennium Cross which costs like 100 Macedonian Dinars. The public transport ticket for all day is 120 Macedonian Dinars and 35 for single journey and valid in all buses inside the city. You can also take city to city and International trains and buses from central Bus/Train station. All offices are located in the central station and buses leaves everyday from central station.
