Strumica, Regional administrative center in southeastern North Macedonia.

The metropolitan area extends across the Strumica Field, bordered by mountains Plavuš and Belasica, with the Strumica River flowing through its territory.

The settlement, first recorded as Astraîon in the 2nd century BC, underwent several name changes including Tiberiopolis during Roman occupation and Ustrumca under Ottoman rule.

The Strumica Carnival, initiated in 1920, brings together regional performers and artists in celebration of local traditions through parades and street performances.

The city maintains transportation connections to neighboring regions through an established road network, with regular bus services connecting to major Macedonian cities.

Archaeological excavations near Strumica revealed continuous human habitation dating from 6000 BC, with artifacts preserved at Stranata and Carevi Kuli sites.
