Furka, North Macedonia

Furka (Macedonian: Фурка) is a village in the south-eastern part of North Macedonia.

Furka is part of the Dojran Municipality, which is one of the most popular tourist places in North Macedonia.

During the period of the Turkish occupation of the country, Furka was settled 2.5 km (1.6 mi) north from the village of today.

They had taken the responsibility to keep the road Valandovo - Dojran, on which Furka was settled, from Turkish rebels.

By the legend, three monks who passed through Furka stopped to spend the night in one of the hostelries, but they were brutally killed by Turkish rebels.
