Bitola Holidays

Macedonia’s second city is an extraordinary mixture of old and new, and a melting pot of cultures and civilisations. It was known as the ‘City of the Consuls’ during Ottoman rule, and you can see neoclassical-style townhouses built by the local aristocracy. The 16th-century Yeni, Isak and Yahdar-Kadi mosques, as well as the striking Saat Kula (Clock Tower), bring further echoes of Ottoman rule. On the town’s outskirts, the ruins of Heraclea Lyncestis are among the top archaeological sites in the Balkans and are famous for its mosaics, ancient theatre and Roman baths from the ancient Macedonia Empire.
