Millions of tourists go for private tours to North Macedonia, a centuries-old contested country, replete with historical events and buildings. Macedonia is located in the Balkan peninsula, sharing borders with Bulgaria, Serbia, Kosovo, Greece, and Albania. This tiny country witnessed the greatest empires like Alexander the Great, the Roman, the Byzantine, the Ottoman, and the Yugoslavia before getting independence in 1991. There are mighty mountains, extensive wildlife, national parks, grand lakes, stone-built buildings, extended hiking trails, and picturesque landscapes. Skopje is the state-of-the-art capital of North Macedonia.
Macedonia is home to Europe’s oldest Ohrid lake and the only Ruby mine. Moreover, it is the first country to launch wireless broadband for the public. It cultivates the strongest potent opium with 14 Morphin units. Plus, Macedonians are gracious. Shaking hands with strangers is their culture.
Macedonia is an Orthodox Christian country. Having over 1000 churches and a significant number of mosques, Macedonia gives the message of religion’s dominancy. Out of 2 million inhabitants, 67 percent population is Eastern Orthodox Macedonians, and 23 percent are Muslims. Politics is religion-centric there.
In Macedonia, food costs next to nothing. Macedonian dishes are fresh, colorful, vibrant, and amazingly delicious. A combination of flavorsome fruits, vegetables, quality dairy items, and juicy meat brings a heavenly taste to the tourists.
