Dear mom,
Today we went to Canyon Womb. Just kidding! We actually visited Canyon Matka, which means “womb” in Macedonian. It is located west of Macedonia’s capital city, Skopje. The canyon is HUGE: its area is around 50,000 metres squared! Hiking through the mountains, we were embraced by beautiful Mother Nature. Various plants and animals surround our trail. Looking down, we could see the Treska river snaking between the mountains. We saw many of the medieval monasteries and churches that Canyon Matka is famous for. It’s a shame we weren’t here in the summertime, or we could have went kayaking on Lake Matka, the oldest man-made lake in Macedonia. After around two hours of hiking, we arrived at a boat rental place which took us to Vrelo Cave. This cave was discovered in 1982. It is 30 metres deep and is the deepest underwater cave in the world!
Will write again soon,
