Prishek (Luepolan: Prišek, Pronunciation: /ˈpriʃek/) is the capital of Luepola. It forms the nucleus of the Prishek federal district (Hautbecirk Prišek), one of two such municipalities in Luepola that are directly subject to the federal government. The city is the third most populous in Luepola. The city is located inland in the central-northern area of the country, between the states of Varadna and Trnava, and straddles the Grast River, just 40 kilometers upstream from the city of Grast, with which Prishek shares a metropolitan area.
