Standing on a plateau at the very top of Skopje's Čaršija is this working mosque where you can see locals come and go for prayers and chit-chat in the lovely rose garden. Dating to 1492, it was heavily restored over a three-year period from 2008 to 2011 with help from Turkey; its magnificent colonnades, soaring minaret and interior decoration gleam like new.
