Hani i Haraçisë (Haraçia’s Inn), Gjakovë

Hani i Haraçisë is a rare surviving Ottoman inn within the Grand Bazaar, dating to the 16th century when Gjakova sat on major overland trade routes. Its courtyard, wooden galleries, and stone ground floor typify the han architecture that once sheltered merchants and their animals. Today the building operates as a restaurant and guesthouse, making it one of the few heritage sites you can enter over a meal. The alley approach, via woodwork shops off Ismail Qemali street, is part of the experience. Reserve for dinner in summer; visit in daylight first to appreciate the structure. A essential stop on any serious bazaar itinerary. Estimated visit time: 30–45 min. City: Gjakovë, Kosovo. Coordinates: 42.37864, 20.42751.
