Pristina is the capital and largest city of Kosovo.
Prishtina is the economic, administrative and cultural center of the country. It is called the “City of Coffee Bars” for many outdoor cafes found almost everywhere.
The Skanderbeg Square is the central plaza of town named after Albanian national hero whose statue can be found there. It is at the end of the Mother Therese Boulevard, the main pedestrian street, and next to the National Theater.
Nearby, housed in an Austria-Hungarian style building, the National Museum has a rich collection of prehistoric objects.
Tucked back in the old town streets, composed of a traditional guest house, an arts studio and a family home, is the Ethnological Museum.
Between these museums are situated two significant mosques:
The Jashar Pasha Mosque.
And the biggest and most important city mosque, the Sultan Fatih Mosque.
Opposite the Fatih Mosque is one of the best landmarks of old town, served as a means of informing the city, the Clock Tower.
In the neighborhood is another religious site, the St Nicholas Church, the only remaining operative Serbian Orthodox Church in Prishtina.
At the end of the Mother Therese Boulevard there is one more big city square, named after the Hero of Kosovo, Zahir Pajaziti.
Close to this square is the Newborn Monument, a memorial unveiled on the independence day.
And behind it is the Palace of Youth and Sports, a multipurpose arena located next to the City Stadium.
A strangely beautiful building of the National Library is even more interesting in construction, built in the campus of the University of Prishtina.
Beside the campus is the Mother Teresa Cathedral, a Roman Catholic Church currently under construction.
10km outside Pristina is the Gračanica Monastery, a crucial religious center, placed on UNESCO’s World Heritage List.
1 hour drive from the capital is the Visoki Dečani Monastery, a major Serbian Orthodox Church also protected by UNESCO.
In Pristina it’s also worth to visit the biggest green area in a center, the City Park.
And the Park of Martyrs, a cemetery with a panoramic view of the city.

People seldom go out of their way to visit Pristina (Albanian: Prishtinë), the capital city of Kosovo: Communist rulers destroyed large chunks of Pristina to build a model city for the new man during the early years of their rule in Yugoslavia, leaving few major sights in the city.
Yet the city has an edge to it—it holds the physical remnants of the different periods of history that are so densely packed into such a short time frame. An odd Ottoman clock tower that escaped the destruction overlooks the fairly ambiguous post-independence 'Newborn' monument, and the unfinished (and probably never-to-be-finished) .On the streets neatly extending between these buildings are the chic residents enjoying the bustling street life and the nightlife scene of their city that was war-torn only a little more than a decade ago. And even if the architecture and drinking aren't your things, it's just plain interesting to witness what was once a socialist backwater transforming, under the watchful eye of the international community, into the glitzy capital of a prosperous nation that lives up to its name.

Cathedral of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour, 6pm, Prizren, Kosovo
The Cathedral of Our Lady of Perpetual Succour is just a few minutes' walk away from Prizren's Center. I happened to be there at 6pm, when the bells rang from the clock tower. Some high school kids were there, completely oblivious. More on Kosovo at
By the way, I mentioned this was an Orthodox church--that was wrong . . .
