Probably one of my favorite castles in Kosovo. Interesting history, beautiful valley across and the guide at the castle is fantastic, so knowledgeable and takes time to explain clearly everything. I will definitely go again with group of friends and perhaps stay at the valley as the scenery is spectacular.

Beautiful mosque from the Ottoman era at the heart of the city. Beautiful internal decorations and external vaults. The architecture, rug, and the chandelier are all lovely.

Pristina’s new cathedral, unofficially named after the famous ethnic Albanian nun, is a welcome addition to city’s skyline. Built in new-renaissance Italianate style, its two campanile towers will reach 70 metres once completed, but building work appears to have slowed down since the venue’s consecration in September 2010. Some €1 million was raised for the building by the Albanian diaspora. While the building is open to public, remember it’s still a building site so say your prayers before entering.

Coming from Western Europe, it's quite rare to see a very modern cathedral - this one was only completed in 2017. It's not overstated but still grand as a cathedral should be. It was very quiet when we were there so a good place if you need some peace. You can pay a few euros to take the lift up the bell tower which is really worth it for a view across the whole city, including the library just across the road.

To understand the emotions Kosovo stirs in the Serbs, you have to go back to 1389, to the Battle of Kosovo Polje—the Field of Blackbirds—one of the largest battles ever fought in medieval Europe. Here a Christian alliance tried to block the northward advance of the invading Ottoman Turks.
