Markovi Kuli (Marko's Towers)

Reviewed By OnAir155431 - Prilep, Republic of North Macedonia

The fortress "Markovi Kuli" in Prilep or "Markukule", a symbol of the city, is a remnant of a medieval city. It was named after the last king, the most famous and sung in folk epic King Marko, who ruled until 1395. The site dates back to the early antique settlement Keramija, which is evidenced by numerous findings, as well as rock drawings dating from the 7th century BC. With their dominant defense system, it makes them unique in the Balkans. The fortress is located on a 120 to 180 meter hill of volcanic origin which abounds in many unusual rocks that by their shape got their name from the inhabitants. On April 10, 2006, "Markovi Kuli" was declared a Monument of Nature.

Treskavec Monastery

Reviewed By ivajennie - Ljubljana, Slovenia

I fell in love with this place! We hiked from Prilep to Treskavec monastery, it took us about an hour and a half. The path was so colorful because it was early autumn. We arrived to the monastery just to see the sunset. It was overwhelming! We spent the night there, for free, in the morning we took a tour of the monastery and the church, took a walk around and then went back to Prilep. For me, it is the most mesmerizing place in Macedonia. If you go there, you won't be sorry! :)

Heraclea

Reviewed By IgorMarkovic - Smederevo, Serbia

Although the famous mosaics of Heraclea Lyncestis are covered during the wintertime, this important archeological site is definitely a must see in this part of Macedonia. An important historical and archeological site dating from the peak of Hellenistic period, the Heraclea will offer you an in-depth insight into the life and architecture of that period, which may not be found in such a good shape in this part of the Balkans. I've visited this place for the second time and I didn't regret it at all, since it offers a wonderful opportunity to visit a revival of ancient times, although in the form of remains of an old and important historical site. All in all, Heraclea is totally worth a visit, especially if you're exploring the beautiful city of Bitola!

Shirok Sokak Street

Reviewed By IgorMarkovic - Smederevo, Serbia

Bitola's main pedestrian zone, usually know as Širok sokak, is probably one of the most beutiful walking areas in this part of the Balkans, in Macedonia for sure. It is known for architecturally and aesthetically beautiful buildings and numerous honorary consulates. It is a vibrant part of the city which combines both the traditional architecture with modern facilities. It is full of caffees, restaurants, but also museums and interesting oldfashioned workshops. All in all, take a slow walk and enjoy its beauty, you won't regret it. All recommendations!
