If this square wouldnt be thereSkopje would look still like a village. It is a kitsch anyway with all these statues but better these than nothing.
Abomination. There is no place for such hideous monuments in the centerof town. I hope they tear it down soon.
Hard to miss as it is directly in the center of Skopje. Nice place to get some travel photos and also a prime meet up point. Definitely a must see while traveling through Skopje, although I think you'd have to try pretty hard NOT to see it! Best in the warmer months when the fountains are on.
I enjoyed the statue. and all of the statues of Skopje for that matter. A good landmark in the center of town across from the old bazaar. Huge and towering above the central square.
It is appalling to see an ancient Hellenic warrior to decorate the centre of Skopje as their national hero!! The name "Alexandros" is Hellenic and is linked to ancient Hellenic history. Nothing to do with Slavic culture! History says it and history cannot be changed! This is historical theft at its best!
I like it. The sculpture is done ok, and I know sculpture, I am an Art Historian. The question that raises eyebrows is who is this person. Is it Alexander the great
Very cool place to sight see, eat, shop. I love Skopje! I will return again and again. Most people know English but a little Macedonian goes a long way, especially with the older crowd.
This is a lovely statue in central Skopje. There's a lot of seating nearby, as well as the stone bridge and lots of restaurants. Definitely worth a visit if you're going to Macedonia's capital.
