Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Needs renovation

Oct 2014 • Family

All the city of skopje is under construction and renovation but this 14th century mosque and the clock tower needs renovation.
The mosque's garden has a good view of bit bazaar.
The clock tower is also open for the visits but finding the guy to open the door will take time.

I think it is the most beautiful mosque in Skopje

Jan 2024 • Friends

This Mosque, known as the Sultan Murad Mosque or by the name of the Imperial Mosque or as the Clock Mosque (due to its proximity to the Clock Tower), was built in 1446 and stands on a hill overlooking the entire area of the Old Bazaar of Skopje. The portal is beautiful. Nearby there is also another monument, somewhat neglected, which I believe is somehow connected to the Mosque.
