Prishtina, Capital city in central Kosovo.
The city spreads across steep hills at 652 meters elevation, with modern government buildings in the center and residential districts on the slopes.
The settlement transformed from a Dardanian village into a major Ottoman trading center, later becoming the capital of Kosovo in 1948.
The National Library building features 99 glass domes and metal-covered exterior walls, making it a distinct architectural landmark in the Balkans.
The Mother Teresa Boulevard serves as the main pedestrian zone, containing numerous restaurants, shops, and administrative buildings in the city center.
The NEWBORN monument receives a new paint design each year to commemorate Kosovo's 2008 declaration of independence.
