A group of people admiring the horizon from a rocky crest filled with astronomical markers at the megalithic observatory Kokino in the Republic of Macedonia, soon after sunrise, early yesterday – the day of the Summer solstice. The ancient astronomic observatory, located about 100 kilometres northeast of Skopje, the capital of the Republic of Macedonia, dates more than 4,000 years back in time. It is ranked by Nasa as the fourth oldest observatory in the world. Photo: Robert Atanasovski/AFP
