Pristina

Pristina (Albanian: Prishtinë or definite form Prishtina, Serbian: Priština), the capital and largest city of Kosovo: it is messy, with centuries-old Ottoman heritage competing with communist designs and post-communist architectural buildings. However, there is a powerful draw to this city of 227,000 people (2024), offering much to passing visitors.
