Covered markets and market halls Northern Macedonia

Located north of Stara Čaršija, the Pit Pazar (Бит-Пазар, Bit-Pazar) is the country's largest market: 15,000^m2 (a small part of which is covered) and over a thousand stalls. You'll find everything: fruit, vegetables, meat, fish, cheeses, honey, rakija, ajvar, infusions, clothes, telephony, household appliances... Also on site: cafés, small restaurants and pharmacies. Although its name is of Turkish origin ("flea market"), it dates back to the Byzantine period, with a fair organized from the ^11th century onwards around the St. George monastery, which disappeared in Ottoman times.

This market (Пазар Буњаковец/Pazar Bunjakovec) is located in the Debar Maalo district, along Partizanski-Odredi Boulevard (buses 2, 2a, 4, 7, 11, 11a, 12, 15, 18, 19, 21, 21a, 22, 22a, 24, 26, 32, 56, 56a, 59, 60, 64a and 118, stop "Pazarche Bunjakovets"). This is the "farmers' market"(pazar na farmeri), with around 300 stalls spread out under halls. Edibles are generally more expensive than at Pit Pazar and Zelen Pazar, but of better quality. Florists stay open until early evening.

This large, partly covered market (Шутка Пазар/Šutka Pazar, Sutka Pazar) consists of four aisles where all kinds of cheap products are sold: fruits and vegetables, kitchen utensils, telephones... and especially clothes, many of which are low-end copies of big fashionable brands. As a result, people from all over Skopje come there to do their shopping... but only those who speak Romani get the best prices! There are several small restaurants around and the main mosque of Šuto Orizari stands just south.
