Аннотация:
Kosovo is ringed by high mountains, ravaged by ethnic tensions, yet its renaissance is just a breath away. Rebuilding is all but complete, domestic tensions have eased and with the help of welcoming Kosovars, this unknown tourist destination is emerging as one of the most exciting corners in southeastern Europe. Written by two Kosovo experts who both lived in the newly independent state for many years, Bradt's Kosovo explores gorges and mountains, the monasteries, mosques and kullas, and soaks up the cafe culture with a macchiato or a glass of fiery raki. From hip urban hotspots to remote monasteries, Kosovo offers up many delights to the adventurous traveller who steps off the beaten path. With revised and detailed descriptions of the growing number of restaurants, bars and shops, plus accommodation to suit all budgets, this second edition to a groundbreaking guide is a vital tool for tourists, NGOs and long-term visitors. Verena Knaus lived and worked in Kosovo from 2001 to 2004 and is a senior analyst with the European Stability Initiative. Gail Warrander left her safe job in the City of London to help with the EU-funded economic reconstruction effort in Kosovo. She speaks fluent Albanian.
