Ye I thought it was Tetovo. If it was Skopje you would see Macedonians as well, But in the photos, all you see is Albanians.

That's not necessarily true. FYROM is segregated for the most part and ethnic groups tend to stick to their own "side." If you cross the bridge in Skopje and enter bit pazar, it will mostly be Albanian.

Yes I know. The Vardar river in Skopje separates the two ethnicities, (Macedonians and Albanians) but Macedonians in Skopje still like to go for walks in the Pazar, so you will still see Macedonians their. Are you suggesting that the Pazar in Skopje looks like the photos you posted?

The photo I posted was taken in the 50's and can't be compared to today. It's been a while since I've been to bit pazar so it's hard to say.

Here's an old picture from what I think is bit pazar in skopje. Notice they majority of them look to be wearing albanian attire
