After a long time traveling you arrive in Skoplje. There you visit the Bazaar and spend the day buying various goods you’ll take back with you to study and document. After an afternoon's worth of bartering, you settle in at the Suli An. You enter into the courtyard and leave your horse in the stable. The Han was the Ottoman Turkish building that combined an urban hotel, stable, and a storage depot. The Han had high, thick walls with one or two entrances and watchtowers in all four corners of the structure. They were square or rectangular stone buildings with multiple storeys (two or three). In the middle of the structure was a courtyard where the merchants left their animals, either camels, horses, or mules. Wooden stairs lead from the courtyard to the first story where merchants slept. These rooms would have fireplaces for winter weather. The Han also had kitchens. As opposed to caravanserai which were constructed along the roads of trade routes, the Han were located within the cities themselves. Hans and caravanserai were built within one days travel of the next. Suli An has one story. On the second floor, shops are located as well as rooms for sleeping. It was built by Iskhak-Bey. It is located in the vicinity of the Serava River, thus its name. Suli An in Turkish means Aquatic An. As you climb up the stairs to the porch of the first floor you observe the animals roaming free in the courtyard. Chickens peck the grass. You enter your room and leave your possessions in a vault, then you exit and make your way to the kitchen. In the kitchen, a couple of other merchants are cooking. You sit with them for a while exchanging travel stories and collecting information. Then you go back to your room and sleep for the night.
