Discover Hidden parts of Macedonia
Macedonia is a small country, rich in natural wonders and curiosities and with unspoilt
nature as well! Many call it "the pearl of the Balkans" - its pearls are the magnificent
lakes, the spas, the caves and the mountains. There are, however, beautiful and rare riches
that are not well-known, although they can be easily found.
Believe it or not, we have works of art made by mother Nature that exceed human imagination.
People tell tales about some of these, and legends are passed on from generation to generation.
There is such a legend, for example, about the extraordinary area of Kuklica near Kratovo.
And about the many-centuries-old stone pillars of Konopishte near Kavadarci, also
called "the pyramids of Macedonia".
Some of the natural phenomena that Macedonia contains are the mystery of the spawning
of the eels, as well as the phenomenon of the small river of Toni Voda, that goes through
the chalky Mount Bistra. Another one is the Alilica cave, in the area around the village
of Tresonche, near Debar. There are also the numerous lakes, waterfalls and entire galleries
of stalactites and stalagmites.
Apart from the natural lakes, there are more then a hundred men-made lakes, rich in flora
and fauna. In the mountains, below the peaks, there are also numerous mountain lakes that
are only known to few. The Monospitovsko, Katlanovsko or Belchishko marshes are also not
known to many, and it is known to even fewer people that in prehistoric times mammoths
and dinosaurs lived there.
Macedonia is full of magnificent and exotic secrets - some are more famous, some are only
known to few. Therefore, take a few days off and discover the hidden beauties of the
Macedonian nature.
