Located in Stara Čaršija, this caravanserai (Капан Ан/Kapan An, Hani i Kapanit) is Skopje's oldest. Erected around 1460 on the initiative of Ottoman governor Isa-Bey Ishaković, it takes its name from the large scales (kapan) that were used to weigh and tax goods transiting through here. Surrounding a square courtyard, the first floor was used for livestock and merchandise, while the upper floor housed 44 rooms for merchants passing through the city. Today, there are several restaurants and cafés, including the Pivnica An.

Cet endroit est sympathique, il est le témoignage d'un ancien passé et des échanges commerciaux. C'est un caravansérail qui dégage un belle atmosphère.
