Begin your journey in Tirana or Durrës and Golem, and drive northwards, enjoying scenic views of the Albanian countryside.
Arrive in Prizren, often called the cultural capital of Kosovo. This picturesque town, nestled on the banks of the Bistrica River and surrounded by lush hills, is a perfect blend of history, culture, and charm. Begin your exploration at the Shadervan Square, the heart of Prizren’s old town, where cafes, local shops, and historic buildings line the cobbled streets. This square is the perfect spot to relax with a cup of traditional coffee while absorbing the lively atmosphere.
Walk through the winding streets to admire Ottoman-era architecture, colorful houses, and the quaint stone bridges that give Prizren its timeless charm. Visit the Sinan Pasha Mosque, a masterpiece of 17th-century Ottoman architecture, with its elegant minaret and intricate interior decorations. Nearby, the League of Prizren Museum tells the story of Kosovo’s historical struggle for unity and independence—a must-see for history enthusiasts.
Explore the local markets and artisanal shops, where you can find traditional handicrafts, jewelry, and souvenirs. Taste the authentic flavors of the region at one of the charming local restaurants, from savory Balkan dishes to sweet treats like baklava or lokum.
Continue to Skopje, North Macedonia. Start at Macedonia Square, the city’s central hub, famous for its grand statues and fountains, including the impressive Warrior on a Horse statue. Walk across the iconic Stone Bridge, which connects the modern city center with the historic Old Bazaar, a bustling area filled with artisan shops, cafes, and vibrant market stalls. Here, you can browse handmade crafts, jewelry, and local delicacies, experiencing the living traditions of Skopje.
Visit Kale Fortress, perched on a hill overlooking the city. The fortress offers stunning panoramic views, perfect for photography and appreciating Skopje’s blend of old and new. Explore St. Clement of Ohrid Cathedral, Mother Teresa Memorial House, and the eclectic mix of neoclassical and modern architecture that gives Skopje its unique character.
