Sence – a village in the Municipality of Mavrovo and Rostuše, in the Gorna Reka area, located on the road between the cities of Gostivar-Debar. Sence is located in the Gorna Reka area, in the central part of the territory of the Municipality of Mavrovo and Rostuše, on the northwestern slope of the Bistra mountain. The village is mountainous, located at an altitude of 1,100 meters.
The village is located on Bistra, towards Barička Gourge, a little lower than Belichica. However, it is located quite high in the mountain. A narrow asphalt road leads to it, which disconnects from the Mavrovo-Debar regional road. In 1852, the inhabitants of Sence helped publish the book “Consolation of Sinners” by Kiril Pejčinović. In the 19th century, Sence was a village in the Rekanska kaza of the Ottoman Empire.
