Lesok

Lesok is a very small town near Tetovo, which is where I work. There's a beautiful church there. The original church was built in the 1300s, I think, but it was destroyed in 2001 during the conflict here. They've rebuilt it now, and it's really beautiful. I went there at the end of December with my mom and then again in January when A. came to visit.


Here are some pictures of the interior, taken in December when my mom came to visit:






There was also a smaller building at the same site, which I think used to be part of a monastery.









And here's A. walking into the building:










I guess people were a lot shorter back then!



Finally, here are some happy little chickens wandering around the grounds of the church.
