Macedonia (Edition 5)

A once-fractured country, as its complex history proves too well, Macedonia now offers a rich mixture of sightseeing options.

Nature lovers and history buffs will be delighted by pristine landscapes and an impressive archaeological heritage.

Visit the crumbling Treskavec Monastery, bathe in the hot springs at Katlanovska Banja and wander through the backstreets of Kratovo, a village set entirely within an ancient volcanic crater.

The most comprehensive guidebook to Macedonia is now in its fifth edition.

Written by Thammy Evans, a political analyst who lived in Macedonia for five years, Bradt's Macedonia makes the ideal travelling companion, whether you're trekking through pristine Pelister National Park, viewing stunning mosques and monasteries or just relaxing with a cocktail on the shores of Lake Ohrid.
