Strumica
Europe is one of the five inhabited traditional continents of the Earth. Physically and geologically, Europe is the westernmost peninsula of Eurasia, west of Asia. Europe is bounded to the north by the Arctic Ocean, to the west by the Atlantic Ocean, to the south by the Mediterranean Sea, and to the southeast by the waterways adjoining the Mediterranean to and including the Black Sea and the Caucasus Mountains. On the east, Europe is divided from Asia by the water divide of the Ural Mountains and by the Caspian Sea. Europe is the world's second-smallest continent in terms of area and third-largest continent after Asia and Africa in population.
Strumica is a city of about 55,000 people in southeastern Republic of Macedonia. There are about 150,000 people living in the region surrounding the city. The city is named after the Strumica river which runs through it. The region was a part of the Byzantine, medieval Bulgarian, and the Ottoman empires. During the First Balkan War the city was liberated from the Turks and for some six years became an integral part of Bulgaria.
Strumica is also known as the town of best geographical environment and has traced its origins back to prehistoric times. Today, one can also learn about its history, from its earliest times and can also enjoy its natural beauty concealed by the beautiful landscapes.
