Fronted by a Triumphal Arch, this square is the centre piece to Skopje's audacious nation-building-through-architecture project and has massive statues dedicated to national heroes in it. The towering, central 'Warrior on a Horse' is bedecked by fountains that are illuminated at night. From here, stroll or cycle along the riverbank, and check out the new buildings lining its northern bank.
