Introducing Prizren
Although Prizren was the medieval capital of 'Old Serbia', the architectural influence is Turkish. Turkish-era buildings abound in Prizren, including the remarkable mosque and baths. Wander through the narrow streets and soak up the history and atmosphere from every cobble, over-hanging building and part-open wooden doorway, and then mull over it all at an outdoor café in the Shadrvan.
