Highlights

Elbasan, located in the heart of Albania, has roots in the ancient Illyrian kingdom of Skampa, dating back to the 1st millennium BC. Excavations reveal that the city's walls were rebuilt in the first half of the 4th century AD. In 1466, Sultan Mehmed II restored the fortifications and renamed the town El-Basan, which means "the fortress" in Turkish. During our visit, we explore the city walls, then pass through the Bazaar Gate near the Clock Tower to reach the St. Mary’s and St. Vladimir’s Orthodox Church, renowned for its beautiful stone arcades on the walls.

About Tirana

Tirana, Albaniens bunte Hauptstadt: bemalte Fassaden, osmanische und italienische Bauten, Bunker des Kalten Krieges und Cafés an jeder Ecke.

Der Skanderbeg-Platz, ein riesiger offener Platz, ist das Herz der Stadt, flankiert von der Et'hem-Bey-Moschee mit ihren zarten Fresken, dem Uhrturm und dem Nationalen Geschichtsmuseum mit seinem riesigen Mosaik aus sozialistischer Zeit. In der Nähe ist die Pyramide von Tirana ein auffälliges Betonrelikt der kommunistischen Jahrzehnte.

Top-ranked sights in Tirana: Skanderbeg Square (Sheshi Skënderbej), Pyramid of Tirana (Enver Hoxha Pyramid), Et'hem Bey Mosque (Xhamia e Et'hem Beut).
