A few miles outside of Pristina is a World Heritage site that is worth visiting. The Gracanica monastery is located in a Serbian enclave just four miles from Pristina. Beautifully preserved, the monastery can be reached by taxi quite cheaply. The church is filled with well-preserved frescos from the 14th and 16th Centuries.

USA President Bill Clinton is a national hero in Kosovo. Locals speak highly of him and they should. He has a boulevard named after him and a fantastic statue in his honor. President Clinton was hear in Prishtina in 2009 addressing Kosovars. Kosovars are so friendly and when locals found out President Clinton was my Commander in Chief, they wanted to hear President Clinton stories. Very respectful!

Due to the security reasons, the Bogorodica Ljeviška Monastery (Our Lady of Ljeviš) is locked and closed. If you would like to visit it personally or in a group, you need to announce your visit in advance, since the Monastery has a security clearance procedure, that needs to be fulfilled. If you manage to visit its interiors, you will not be disapointed, especially if you're into history and medieval architecture, art and religion. Although the Monastery has severely been damaged in 2004, a detailed restoration of frescoes which has been partially done since then will allow you to enjoy its beauty and its history. The Monastery is considered to be one of the most important historical and architectural sites in Prizren and should not be missed if you're visiting this beautiful amazing city. Once again, make sure to plan your visit to this UNESCO-protected site, since it's usually closed for visitors.
