Скачать или смотреть Is This The Worst City In North Macedonia?

In this Balkan Travel Vlog, we explore what might became our least favorite city in North Macedonia. Tetovo is a city in the northwestern part of North Macedonia, built on the foothills of Šar Mountain and divided by the Pena River.

The Republic of North Macedonia (also known as the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, FYROM, and FYR Macedonia) is a landlocked country in the heart of the Balkans. The majority of the population is ethnic Macedonian and Orthodox Christian but there is also a significant Albanian Muslim minority.

Tetovo has become the unofficial capital and center of a predominantly ethnic Albanian region extending from Tetovo to Struga.

Transportation in North Macedonia is exceptionally affordable. We took a bus from Skopje, the capital of North Macedonia to a small city about an hour away and the bus tickets were $3.25 per person. Our accommodation was equally affordable in Tetovo. We booked a hotel room outside the city center for $18 a night!

While in Tetovo we visited the Šarena Džamija, which translates to the painted Mosque. The mosque was originally built in 1438 and later rebuilt in 1833 by Abdurrahman Pasha. It’s such a beautiful Mosque and the frescos on the outside make it a unique place in Europe to visit!

We found the Tetovo Fortress online and hailed a taxi driver to take us to the top. The ride to the top took about 20 minutes each way and was honestly quite terrifying. The Tetovo Fortress was underwhelming because there wasn’t any infrastructure to maintain the fortress, but nonetheless, the views from up top were pretty spectacular. The taxi ride to the top of Tetovo Fortress and back cost us $8!
