Built in 1830, it is the landmark and one of Bitola's most important buildings. It is located in the park, where the New Mosque and the Church of St. Demetrios are also located.

The road from Resen up to the pass was easy to cycle. The new road down towards Bitula is obviously more suitable.

Road isn't in a good condition, but not a single car there

At the end of the Korzo you can see two mosques. One is still active. The other now houses cultural events.

The iconostasis was made in golden woodcut by an unknown clique of woodcutters This church is a temple of the eparchy and is one of the largest churches in Macedonia. It was built in 1830, and its bell tower a century later, in 1936. It was built at a time when Turkish law did not allow churches to be too high. Therefore, burying this magnificent building in the ground was the best way to respect the law at that time. The interior is very beautiful and richly decorated. Two rows of massive columns, six on each side, divide it into three naves, of which the central one is the largest. It was built in the form of a three-nave basilica, with side galleries on the floor where there are chapels. The iconostasis is made of deep woodcut, with plaster and gold, and is rich in elements of the flora and fauna. It was created by the hands of a previously unknown clique of Macedonian woodcarvers.

The Clock Tower is the most famous monument and symbol of Bitola. It is located in the center. The town clock dominates with its height and broadcasts popular music in time with the hour hand. Although no documentation of its construction has been found, it is assumed that it was built during the period of Turkish rule, in the 14th century, together with the Jeni Mosque. It is 33 m high and stands on a square base. On the north side there is a semicircular entrance and internal staircases made of stone in the shape of a spiral. It is divided into three floors, and on the third floor there is the mechanism with clocks on all four sides. The top part is a small dome that offers a beautiful view of the City of Consuls and the surrounding area. The park around the tower is the place for citizens to gather on Christmas Eve. There they light candles on the lawn and along the sidewalk on Christmas Eve.

In August a big meeting of Macedonians from all over the world.
