1 / 6Secrets of Ferizaj Self-Guided Scavenger Hunt & Walking Tour
About this activity
Navigate Ferizaj's vibrant streets on a self-guided GPS exploration game where street art comes alive—literally. Follow puzzles, riddles, and photo challenges to help Mira, a charismatic mural character, find her way home while uncovering the city's blend of cultural landmarks, markets, and contemporary art.
Ferizaj bursts with color and energy, where street art doesn’t just decorate walls, it talks back. Especially when one of its murals, Mira Veseli, slips right out of the paint and into your path. She’s bold, chatty, a little chaotic, and very lost. In practice it plays as a self-guided scavenger hunt and walking tour through Ferizaj in one.
Her mission is simple: find her face, her mural, her home. Yours? Walk the streets, follow the art, and piece together the vibrant story of a city that turns concrete into canvas. Solve Mira’s puzzles, laugh at her jokes, and help her return to where she belongs, larger than life on a wall that remembers her.
You came to explore. You stayed to save the story.
