Bitola is one of the fairest of all cities. It lies at the valley mouth and spills out into wide plains, shading itself with poplar groves; and till full summer there are snow peaks to be seen beyond the plains. * It is one of those cities which prove to our amazement that we Westerners have never even begun to understand what town-planning means. “Rebecca West” - Англиска писателка, новинар и есеист, напиша за Битола во својата книга - Black Lamb and Grey Falcon. Објавена во 1941 година.
