Magnificent scenery. Interesting details on how to obesrve sun and moon. Surrounding nature at its best. Highly recommended to all
The road leading to the place is awesome! Its like driving within deep forest with big trees. It was great driving experience. The air is very good up there without the high pollution from the city. We arrived there at nearly 8 pm, it started to get darky so we didnt spent much time up there. The view from there was also very nice. I would recomend going there earlier just to be able to spend more time up there.
Beautifull. Breathtacking. Bring some snacks and water, there are no markets or restaurants near by. Tickets are 2 euro per person.
Once in a lifetime sight, when you can spare the time to dwell on the past;)
Perfect place for chillout and relax you can feel an eons passing like minutes
Very nice place to enjoy in nature and observatory.
Extremely cool ancient observatory
Ideal place to clear your mind
This is one of mine favorite places in Macedonia. No charges for tickets. It is absolutely free. Good hiking. It connects history, science, entertainment and nature all in one. Might be just scary road. Not wide. But ok.
Great place! Ideal for looking at the stars and making photos of Milky Way.
It is a very historic and valuable monument to not only Macedonia, but the world. Being one of the oldest megalithic observatories in the world a place such as this truly demands better facilitation and enclosure from the local government in order to make it more tourist friendly. If you plan a visit be sure to get yourself a local guide who is familiar with the place's history and purpose to give you the utmost best experience.
One of the oldest megalithic observatories in the world from the bronze age. Must visit
