Haraçia's Inn
Being in the southern part of the Bazaar (15-20 minutes on foot), the Haraçia Inn is one of the oldest objects in Gjakova. It has a characteristic wooden construction style, with a beautiful balcony or "çardak". Having two floors and a wonderful yard, it has almost saved the original shape, while nowadays it is exploited as a museum-restaurant, where people can be served with traditional foods.

Hani i Vjetër
Next door to Hani i Haraçisë is Hani i Vjetër which is part of the Han complex and has an even better atmosphere although the food is not as good. If visiting in the morning, ask for paqë (beef soup) here.
