Goce Delčev Square

Goce Delčev Square (Macedonian: Плоштад „Гоце Делчев“, romanized: Ploštad „Goce Delčev“) is the main public square in the town of Strumica, situated in the southeastern part of North Macedonia. It is one of the biggest city squares in the country with a total area of 23,485 square metres. It is named after the revolutionary Goce Delčev, who has a monument on the square, built in the 1970s.[1] The square was reconstructed in 2010 and is split on two floors. The first level is an underground road junction with a parking lot, while the second floor is an open pedestrian space filled with statues, buildings and decorative equipment.[2] Before the reconstruction the square had only a small area focused on Delčev's monument.
