North Macedonia / StreetartOn the west side of the bridge over the Vardar River from Goce Delchev Boulevard, the Ilinden Boulevard begins. Beneath this bridge and the surrounding walls on the riverbank is a great graffiti spot. It’s not exactly a legal wall, but most of the areas along the riverbanks have been tolerated as creative spaces for many years, where you can find countless graffiti. At this location here the walls are higher and easier to paint, also the bridge provides better protection from the sun and weather, which is why the works can be seen longer around. The pillars beneath the bridge are also covered in graffiti pieces as well.

Here, on the Discovery Coast, Brazil’s history breathes on every corner, guarded by a nature that feels like it’s been untouched for centuries.
