Itinerary

Albanian League of Prizren Museum [Muzeu Lidhja Shqiptare e Prizrenit] 

 

At 08.00am, our professional guide will pick you up at your hotel in Tirana and then we will drive to Prizren, through a beautiful valley and mountainous terrain. First stop will be League of Prizren. The Prizren league house- old complex where Albanian political organization founded on June 10, 1878 in Prizren. Albanian Prizren League officially started with gathering of 300 representatives of all Albanian regions. 

 

Stone Bridge

 

The Old Bridge consists of three arches, where the middle arch is the largest, whereas the side arches are smaller and are not the same that makes the bridge asymmetric. During the adjustment of the “Remzi Ademi” road in the 1950’s, the bridge changes in its appearance as the right- arch (north side) gets closed to expand the road. Although with a deformable view, the bridge has committed itself until 17.11.1979 where waters flood the city of Prizren, where the bridge falls apart completely. The Bridge rebuilt again where the cornerstone was laid on the 5th of June 1982, while the inauguration was done on the 17th of November 1982.

 

Sinan Pasha Mosque 

 

The Sinan Pasha Mosque is an Ottoman Mosque in the city of Prizren, Kosovo. It was built in 1615 by Sofi Sinan Pasha, bey of Budim. The mosque overlooks the main street of Prizren and is a dominant feature in the town's skyline. It has one large dome and another smaller half-dome that covers the mihrab, which is painted and has a stalactite hood. The walls and dome inside Sinan Pasha Mosque were painted in the 19th century, mostly of floral patterns and Qur'an verses. The minbar is painted with floral motives. Both the large dome and the half-dome of the mosque are covered with lead. The stone flooring of the mosque and the carpentry are original.

 

Kalaja Fortress (optional)

 

It's well worth making the steep 15-minute hike up from Prizren's old town for the superb views over the city and on into the distance. The fortress itself is a little tumble-down but restoration work is currently underway. In the evening heaps of locals come up here and a slight carnival atmosphere prevails. In the white-heat of day, it can be quite lifeless. Archeological remains have been found here dating back as far as 1100 BC, but the first fortress was built here by the Byzantines
