Rutt

1. This tour starts by picking up the guests from the hotel, and transport to Kumanovo which is a 50 minutes ride from Skopje. We start the tour from a local restaurant, riding on asphalt road. Our first stop was the Church of Saint George from the XI century, famous for its architecture and fresco painting. After this visit, we continue to ride to Kokino, passing by a few villages on our way. When we arrive in Kokino, we will have a view of the 4th oldest megalithic observatory in the world, according to NASA. We can see and take a seat in the special stone markers used to track the movement of the Sun and Moon on the eastern horizon. Four stone seats or "thrones" are placed in a row on the lower platform. The observatory used the method of stationary observation, marking positions of the Sun at the winter and summer solstice, as well as the equinox. After we finish the view of the observatory, we return to our starting point for lunch in the local restaurant.

About Skopje

Skopje is the capital of North Macedonia, a Balkan city on the Vardar River with an Ottoman bazaar, a stone bridge and many statues.

Skopje straddles the Vardar River in a wide valley, its two halves joined by the fifteenth-century Stone Bridge. On the north bank the Old Bazaar is a web of lanes lined with workshops, cafés and mosques, with the Kale fortress above it. On the south bank, Macedonia Square is dominated by a giant statue of a horseman, popularly taken for Alexander the Great, amid the monuments, bridges and neoclassical façades added in the early 2010s. An earthquake in 1963 destroyed much of the city.
