Those “historical” buildings are less than 20 years old... I was there in 2006 and it’s changed SO much. Super interesting!
Skopje is such a cool looking city! From your videos I gather that former Yugoslavia is quite a gem and highly underrated!
I managed to visit Macedonia already twice this year and I definitely recommend to visit Skopje and Ohrid
@Sumapluma 👏👏👏
Try living in it and say its great
@Sumapluma there was no albania before skopje
@Sumapluma are you nuts
Mother Teresa Square is the square you saw abandoned, dedicated to Mother Teresa, born in Skopje.
I see, thanks.
@Reflex She was Indian-Albanian but was born in Skopje.
@@masteresmk7953
She was Albanian by ethnicity... she became an Indian citizen during her missionary work in Calcutta later in life after becoming a nun.
Your comment has nothing to do with it. The square is not abandoned, but every country and people has its own habits and mentality! This video was recorded at a time when 85% of Skopje and Macedonians went on vacation in other countries en masse. And that every summer from July to the beginning of October, Skopje is always abandoned. That was the pulse of the people of Skopje until the nonsense with COVID-19 started. We currently have open borders with our brothers in Serbia, Montenegro, Bosnia. Everything else is closed.
@@SpeedWalkerigor yep
This whole series has been truly beautiful, from the scenery to the food. I've always liked your style and your laid back attitude. I think this area of the world suits your personality and you seem at home there.
Predivno. Čestitam. Država, gradovi, mjesta, kultura... ljudi... Sve vam je super. Pozdrav iz Hrvatske. 👍❤️

Another great video. My wife and I watched and said - "we have to go there - this city is stunning". Thank you for your great footage!
Gabriel- been watching you off and on for years- depending on my own travels. I have noticed lately [?] you have added more detailed info; MUCH APPRECIATED. As always excellent work!! Thanks again... and again. BIG FAN!!!
I was going to make the exact comment. BTW I should have ordered two tee shirts in that last order as my first two barely made it to that last order. Hope you have your next tee shirt order sooner next time.
Hi Gabriel, Im ethnic albanian from Skopje and I follow you since 2017. Finally u get to visit my city. Welcome and thank you.
Very cool, thanks for watching and have a good one.
What an underrated capital city with all these impressive buildings, statues and street lights and surrounding mountains! It also looks completely different from the other ex-Yuguoslav capitals, it's like a strange mix of Greek classicism mixed with American postmodernism plus lower typical Balcan stores and restaurants.
Nearly all of the neoclassical architecture and monumentation in Skopje was just built in the last 15 years under the previous administration. A lot of it is historically dubious and seen as an attempt to create a more extravagant narrative than really belongs to now-North Macedonia, and multiple modernist buildings by significant architects were given low-quality quasi-neoclassical facades, but it nevertheless seems to be a very pleasant city to walk around in, and I would be glad to visit one day.
The project in Skopje is called Skopje 2014 and it has been entirely halted and partially reversed, hence the number of unfinished-looking buildings in the video.
Source: I'm American but writing a college senior thesis about reconstructions in Europe.
These statues where created by political propaganda and history falsification. It is nothing to admire but just use as an example of horrific government propaganda
Impressive buildings and a mix of Greek classicism? You must be on strong drugs. Really...
@@Shako_Lamb I wish we had "fake" classic buildings, but it's all ugly down here.
Always a pleasure to watch your videos and listen to all your info during these🤘🙏 Thanks a lot and have a nice evening🍺
Greetings from Sweden🇸🇪
fabulous city with tons of character , thanks Gabriel for doing the legwork for those who can not be there.
You must be joking
I was waiting for this vlog since morning and here it is.
Cool, enjoy it.
Tour of Skopje is great❤️Thank you Gabriel. I’m glad you’re in our country😊I wish you a pleasant stay, most welcome❤️
Im Macedonian, but the Albanians and turkish people in macedonia are very friendly i respect them a lot . Peace brothers.
Thanks bro
My beautiful City. I miss you Skopje ❤ so proud that I am an Macedonian !!!!
North Macedonian* don't forget that
@Admiral i dont care how you call yourselves, but how you should call yourselves
I am Macedonian…you’re not Macedonian
You Are bulgar 😂
A d Shkupe/Skopje is Albanian.
The rooms amazing!
Fun fact: According to the agreement signed by North Macedonia and Greece last year, N. Macedonia is obliged to put a label in any statue of ancient macedonian figure, stating it's Greek origin. Gabe, don't miss lake Ohrid and if you go south to Pella you can also visit the tomb of Philip in nearby Vergina
Yea ' into the original place
ALL STATUES REPREZENT MACEDONIAN KINGS and TSARS ! ! !
Like everything about Macedonia,looks great.
Another super travel video of a very interesting and little known European capital city.
A friend of mine had major dental work done there for a third of the price it would have been in Ireland.
Great work Gabe.
If you want a picture perfect moment take a small detour up the mountain Галичица (Galichica)... Probably best on your way to or from the monestery of St. Naum Oxridski.
From the view you could see both lakes Oxridsko & Prespansko.
Either way, i wish you a pleasant stay in our country, and if you are are interested in other historical, cultural, or nature related places let me know.
Hi Gaby, I'm a massive fan mate, keep up the good work.
Thank you Gaby for all you do, so people like me can enjoy the world, thank you.
@@AdriansRUclipsChannel Gaby baby!
Oh yeah?
As an ex Yugoslavia I'm embarrassed to say that I had no clue how absolutely beautiful Skoplje is. I will definitely have to visit!
Today's video left me with a feeling of inner peace and I really enjoyed your great story telling. Thanks!
Hi 👋
Plz reply
Skopje looks like a great city to walk around, lots to see there. thanks for the tour!
Great city?!? U crazy
Hahah its not my brother,they try to immitate Paris or London,its funny because Macedonian architectural culture is not barouqe,we have our own style and they use european and its funny
It's an awful place
@@kippsguitar6539............ zuj .

WOW !!! $40 a night in that place in beginning of video was super nice. Here in TN you'd pay $500 a night for that much room. I'm so shocked at how cheap things are over in that area. Great video as always
Yeah, in Australia in peak season, a room like that would cost $400+ per night! What a bargin !
Average monthly income in Macedonia is like 400 dollars. You do the math. Not cheap for anyone local. Just cheap for visitors.
There's a movie on Hulu called Honeyland about a beekeeper in North Macedonia. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking to learn more about this beautiful country ❤️
Please don't call our country North. That shamefull name is an insult for the Macedonians as it was brought to life by corrupted politicians, the people itself refused the name change on a census.
Grandparents born there early 1900’s. Then migrated to Detroit in mid 1920’s via Varna Bulgaria and Canada.
My grandmother had 6 sisters that stayed so somewhere In Macedonia I have distant relatives. I will make the trip there one day. 🇲🇰
Im sure you guys know about Mike Ilitch his parents were Macedonian

I was Skopje December 2019. Very nice and interesting city particularly old Bazaar which is one of the oldest and largest marketplace in the Balkans, it has been Skopje's centre for trade and commerce since at least the 12th century
SKOPJE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CITY I AM FROM SKOPJE I WAS THERE 2 YEARS IGO I hope see you next summer
I agree! Beautiful Skopje! I was Blessed to go there with my co-worker in 2019.
The female statues in the plaza look like the muses of ancient Greek mythology. The one holding books or a scroll is Clio, muse of history, clearly one that speaks to travelers interested in history!
Patrick W Yes. According to Prespa Agreement that forced that country to change the name to North Macedonia, in all these statues must put an inscription that they belong to Greek History and not to our Slav neighbors. Am sure they have their own Slav, no need to steal Greek. Macedonia and North Macedonia should have good relations,not hostile.
Study a little more about the history of the Macedonian people and you will discover many truths that you have not heard of and for centuries have been wanted to be destroyed in front of the public all over the world.
@@ioanniskoletis8300 Да
@@ioanniskoletis8300 Nowhere does it say greek it says part of the hellenic civilization which greece does not have exclusive rights considering "greeks" in Agean Macedonia were brought in 1923 from Turkey and before that were less than 10% of the region this followed by Ionnas Metaxis fascist rule/civil war forced many Agean Macedonians to accept greekness or be killed/exiled(I am descendant of one of these people) and the prespa agreement was an illegal one followed by a failed referendum so under a non puppet governement can easily be terminated but that will take many years sadly (I should add the inscriptions barely make it a day without being vandalized :)
@@ioanniskoletis8300 its Hellenic culture actually, there is a difference, you know? Talking about stealing... Greece expelled millions Slavs from Aegean Macedonia to steal their land. That territory belongs to Slav and Greek speaking Macedonians, not Greeks.
Wow, this is so beautiful place! its a combination of old and new culture, and it is very clean! How I wish I could visit here
Great job Gabriel, excellent video, thanks for sharing. I’m not sure if you are aware of that Skopje was 90% destroyed in 1963 earthquake, and rebuilt by ex Yugoslavian government with world wide help.
Thanks for another great video .
We are not Slavs.
We are Macedonians like Aristotle philosopher And Alexander the great.!
The Slavs conquered our homeland!
They destroyed our history, our language.
Even the names of our cities were made Slavic.
Looks like I will be visiting Skopje in September with my girlfriend when we travel around the Balkins as part of our larger tour of Europe. Looks like a beautiful city! Great video as usual 👍
Wow! Such a beautiful place.
I learned more in this 33minute video about the history of Macedonia then I would have learned in any history book. I thank you Gabriel! I've noticed over the last 10 years in many of those countries the graffiti is everywhere. It's ashame these young people have no respect for property that isn't theirs. 😔😪 another beautiful video, a city I must visit. Enjoy the show, stay safe my friend. ✌
What did you learn,he speaks what he thinks and not how it is!
Beautiful city and country. History disputes aside, all of the Balkan countries are amazing and highly underrated. Greetings from a bulgarian!
Well said.
It is indeed a Bulgarian city and people. The only ones who seem to not know about that, are the Bulgarians in that country 😂

I can finally comment again, after my account was locked for no reason. So great video as usual. Very unusual place, it seems like. A mix of everything there.
Old section of Skopje is the nicest city in balkans. Period. Sarajevo is nice too and the old section of Mostar. Unfortunately it suffers a certain tension between Albanians and Macedonians. Ohrid bitola and krusevo are very attractive places. Nice warm people. Great and famous folk music. The true pearl of the balkans like the song of the same name. People are poets. God bless Macedonia and it’s fine people.
Name macedonia is in Albanian and shkupi too since the time of Alexander the great 🇽🇰🇦🇱✌

Please don't call our country North. That shamefull name is an insult for the Macedonians as it was brought to life by corrupted politicians, the people itself refused the name change on a census.
Skoplje looks beautiful. I'd like to visit in the future. Few of my friends went to Macedonia couple of years ago and said that the food is amazing. I hope you will keep on trying out macedonian delices. Enjoy your trip and film everything!
@Voskresija Glavin yeah you just need to finish the central area and take care of thrash a little better.. But still a beautiful city and nice people
A nice walk around Skopje. It's a shame that it's empty, young people run away abroad for a better life. And it went well, very well, both in Skopje and in the Republic of Macedonia. Many foreign companies started to invest in the free zones, but unfortunately it bothered someone and broke up the Republic of Macedonia. They changed the flag, the name, they humiliated the Macedonian people. Let's hope that a new generation will come that will restore the name of the country, the dignity of the Macedonians, and Macedonia will flourish again.
20:04 al those buildings are new and built trough a very controversial project called Skopje 2014 and was not really welcomed by the people in Skopje because it ruined the "real" look of the town. That is why people dont care about it and are prone to damage all this new buildings and monuments. We consider it to not be a typical architecture for the region and very kitsch.
The controversial part of it is that most of the money for this project went to the pockets of criminal politicians instead of architecture
17:10 I was so glad that he corrected and educated you😅😅 it’s important to know albanian history throughout albania, kosovo and macedonia
The Yutong City Master is a 2011 model of low-floor double-decker bus that was first designed for JSP Skopje, the public company which has operated bus routes in Skopje since 1948.
Cool.
Macedonia is a region in Greece and the term "Macedonia" refers exclusively to that region

Everybody should visit Skopje and Macedonia at least once in a lifetime.
Wow loved it ❤
I gotta visit Ohrid & Skopje one day.
And yes, it does have an Irish bar. Surprisingly nice looking town. Yes, I know it's a city but I use the term "town" in the traditional English use of the word.
Fantastic video, brings back great memories of my trip there last year. You have great interaction with the locals. Keep it up and safe travels!
Love watching your travels,
Like the way you show street art,
And every thing else,
Super sence of style about your self, watching from Ireland.
The buildings in the square look brand new. Are they struggling for an identity? Very interesting though. Thanks for showing us. Stay safe.
Skopje was destroyed by an earthquake in 1963 and then rebuilt. I guess a lot of the buildings are even more recent, from 2010-2015 or so.

I work at a hotel in Struga. If you wanna visit the town be sure to come to Hotel Biser (where I work) or Hotel Izgrev which is better in terms of quality. Both are close to eachother. There is wonderful wilderness combined with a couple of structures nearby. It is slightly outside the town in a really nice secluded part. It is a place for real rest.
Second is Bitola, my hometown. Quite a decent place. Couple of ancient history monuments and some newer history ones. Great for Mountainiering. Krusevo and Ohrid are a must too.

Αccording to the international agreement of prespa they must have signs on statues of alexander the great and philip saying this is beloging to ancient hellenic history.they removed the signs as i see so this is a violation of the agreement

@@bobantheighty6141 Yeah I understand why both (N. Macedonia and Greece) cherish their culture and history so much, but it's kinda funny both countries has only been that country for a couple of hundres years.
And with the importance of ancient greek culture I understand why they hold on to it (and the area being greek (culture) all the time), but since they've been part of empires for most of history I'm pretty sure they've been heavily influenced by other cultures in those empires through time.
But I guess we all hold on to our highs, it's the same with vikings here and they were only a thing for like 1-200 years. But at least we've been Denmark since back then lol.
