#17 Szkopje
The history of the capital of North Macedonia, once the techno capital of Yugoslavia, has been a challenging one.
The city's turbulent political past in the 20th century has resulted in a convergence of conflicting influences, lending it a distinctive atmosphere. Here, communist-era architecture coexists with modern luxury buildings, while the impact of the Skopje 2014 project is evident through numerous monuments and sculptures. Behind the façade of crumbling structures, a resilient community thrives, cherishing their traditions while embracing contemporary trends, whether in music or gastronomy.
