It’s characterized by its unique neighborhoods made up of quaint villas and low-rise houses, all adorned with cobblestone pavements.

The revamped National Museum of Medieval Art is also located here, along with the Prehistoric Museum, the estate-turned-museum of renowned landscape artist Vangjush Mio, the “Bratko” Museum of Oriental Art, and others.
