*SOME FACTS ABOUT SKOPJE*

Skopje is the capital and largest city of the Republic of Macedonia.
It's located in the north-western part, some 169 km away from the second
largest city in Macedonia, Bitola. It lies on both banks on the upper
course of the Vardar River and on the meridian passing through the
Morava-Vardar Valley. The main Balkan artery, the E-75 motorway, which
is being modernized, is in the close vicinity of the city. This road
connects Skopje with Belgrade (440 km away) and Solun (Thessaloniki) and
the Aegean sea (250 km), namely in the eastern Mediterranean. Skopje is
just 490 km away from Athens, about 170 km from Sophia, and 460 km away
from Bucharest.
