About Pristina
Pristina Adem Jashari Airport (PRN) is Kosovo's only commercial airport and the primary gateway for the Western Balkans' youngest country. Wizz Air, easyJet, and Swiss Airlines operate the main European connections, with routes to London, Zurich, Vienna, and several German cities being the strongest given the large Kosovar diaspora. Pristina itself is a compact, young, and rapidly changing city — the average age of Kosovo's population is one of the lowest in Europe, which gives the capital an unusually energetic café and nightlife culture. The Newborn sculpture, installed to mark independence in 2008 and repainted annually with a new design, has become the country's most photographed landmark. Beyond Pristina, the Rugova Canyon near Peja (Pec) is one of the Balkans' most dramatic natural landscapes, and the Serbian Orthodox monasteries of Decani and Gracanica are among the best-preserved medieval sacred buildings in the region.
