Mother Teresa BoulevardBulevardi Nënë Tereza
The long pedestrian boulevard is the city's living room: walk it once by day and once after 18:00; nothing to book and nothing that closes.

Rules in force · 10Non-EU visitors get 90 days in any rolling 180-day window…Mine-suspected land still exists in Bosnia and Herzegovin…Cracked pavements and dug-up streets around the boulevard…
- Europe ↗Non-EU visitors get 90 days in any rolling 180-day window, counted across all 29 Schengen states together — not per country; the Entry/Exit System now logs each crossing, so an overstay is detected automatically.
- Europe ↗On the first Schengen entry since EES began, non-EU travellers give four fingerprints and a face photo at the border instead of a passport stamp; there is nothing to apply for or pay in advance.
- Balkans ↗Mine-suspected land still exists in Bosnia and Herzegovina and in pockets of Croatia's former front line: outside towns keep to tarmac and waymarked paths, and treat red triangle signs and taped-off fields as absolute.
- Balkans ↗Serbia refuses onward entry to travellers who reached Kosovo from a third country and then try to cross straight into Serbia; route Kosovo–Serbia legs through North Macedonia or Montenegro, or start the loop in Serbia.
- Balkans ↗Hire cars need written permission from the rental company and valid insurance for every country on the line; Kosovo sells its own border insurance and some contracts exclude Albania, Kosovo or Bosnia outright.
- Kosovo ↗Kosovo sets its own entry rules and is outside the EU and Schengen area; check the official requirements for your passport.
- Kosovo ↗If you enter Kosovo from a country other than Serbia, Serbian border officials may not allow you to continue into Serbia from Kosovo. Check both your government's Kosovo and Serbia advice before planning that leg.
- Kosovo ↗Foreign-registered and rental cars may need separate local insurance at the border; check with the rental company before crossing.
- Pristina ↗Cracked pavements and dug-up streets around the boulevard make big suitcases hard: bags go from the car to the door, never on a walk.
- Pristina ↗Agree the fare or check for a running meter before you get into any taxi; pre-book the airport ride through your hotel.
