Pristina isn’t exactly the most beautiful city in Kosovo but it is indeed on the best cities of the country. If you aren’t familiar with the country, it’s a Muslim-country that has an almost equal amount of Christians. You'll therefore visit a country that has two main religions and the merge of both is a sight to see. There are numerous religious places for the Muslims and also for the Christians , you should visit. The city is a healthy combination of the traditional and modern world. So, it doesn’t matter if you’re following a religion other than these two, the city has a lot for you to visit. We will point out some special and definitely worth visiting locations later on.

Pristina takes the safety of their public very seriously. You can even get fined if you’re crossing a road with headphones on. That’s how vigilant these guys are. Driving without a seatbelt is also illegal and can get you some serious punishment. The penalties of over-speeding include monetary fines, bans and even negative points on your license. We advise you to strictly follow their traffic rules, in order to avoid any trouble. A list of the permitted speeds in Pristina is given:
Plaes | Speed in Miles Per Hour |

Being a Muslim country, you aren’t allowed to drink and drive. The amount of alcohol in your blood must be zero. There are bars in Pristina too, but you aren’t allowed to drive a vehicle while you are intoxicated. They do allow 10 mg alcohol per 100 ml of blood but only for medicines. So, the bottom line is that you shouldn’t even sip on a beer before driving your rental car otherwise you could get into some serious trouble.
Just like we promised earlier, Pristina has a lot of places for you to visit, even if you are a not religious person. There are quite a few grand mosques and churches but, other than that, there are also a lot of other things to keep your busy.
