Turkish market in Skopje, Macedonia

Macedonia (FYROM) has a large Turkish (Muslim) minority, a result of 500 years occupation by the Ottoman Empire. This is picture from the big Turkish bazaar, sleeping at night, but busy during daytime. It was the evening of January 1st, maybe it was even calmer than on normal nights.
