About Tirana

Tirana, colorata capitale dell'Albania: edifici dipinti, monumenti ottomani e italiani, bunker della Guerra Fredda e caffè a ogni angolo.

Piazza Skanderbeg, una vasta piazza aperta, è il cuore della città, affiancata dalla moschea Et'hem Bey con i suoi delicati affreschi, dalla torre dell'Orologio e dal Museo Storico Nazionale con il suo gigantesco mosaico dell'era socialista. Nelle vicinanze, la Piramide di Tirana è un impressionante relitto di cemento dei decenni comunisti.

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