The capital and largest city in Macedonia :D .... about 700k citizens, estimated for the census in April 2011.... It is a very busy city.... works, school, everybody is on the hurry.... but that lasts till everyone gets home... or not... after that relaxing in the city's bars, restaurants, the City's Park, the Kay of Vardar, home in the garden or nearby park, etc. This is more common in the weekends, when people go to Matka, the Kale, Vodno.....

So, as I said, the most common places in Skopje are the bars, restaurants, the City's Park, the Kay of Vardar, Matka, the Kale, Vodno etc.

I will tell you somethings for them, a little bit of all....

So the bars.... Many bars, that's because people here love coffee and talking. And you can find bars, almost everywhere in the city.
