Gliding Through Matka Canyon

Just west of Macedonia’s capital city Skopje is a beautiful area known as Matka Canyon. Matka is Macedonian for womb (and Polish for mother, same concept!)

A short boat ride in a rainbow-colored boat took us to Vrelo Cave, thought to be the world’s deepest underwater cave, with its stalactites, including the one below known as the pine cone.
