Prizren, Full Day Trip from Tirana

Prizren, in Kosovo, is a charming city of mosques and monasteries dating back to the 14th century.

Happily spared (mostly) from both the "destroy the old, build the new" drive of the communists during the early years of their rule in Yugoslavia, as well as the ethnic and religious atrocities that plagued the Western Balkans in the last decade of the 20th century, Prizren has the best-preserved old town in the country so far, and is often referred to as the cultural capital of Kosovo.
