Gus and I had a spare day up our sleeves and were impressed with Prilep so decided to stay an extra day. Following breakfast we walked in to town and looked around the old bazaar market and at a Mosque which had been burnt down many years ago under questionable circumstances. The clock tower in the old bazaar was Macedonia's answer to the Leaning tower of Piza. (See photo). The clock tower was built in 1825.
From there we walked to the foot of the Marko Towers which is a range of hills outside town and decided to climb them in 30c + just to relax. Lol. There are some old ruins at the top which were nice. From the top we worked out a short cut to the hotel and followed it home to the hotel for a cold shower.
A brief rest and then out for dinner.
