Hoogtepunten

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 is de kleurrijke, levendige hoofdstad van Albanië, met beschilderde gebouwen, Ottomaanse en Italiaanse monumenten, bunkers en overal cafés.

Het Skanderbegplein, een enorm open plein, is het hart van de stad, geflankeerd door de Et'hem Bey-moskee met zijn tere fresco's, de klokkentoren en het Nationaal Historisch Museum met zijn gigantische mozaïek uit de socialistische tijd. Vlakbij is de Piramide van Tirana een opvallend betonnen overblijfsel van de communistische decennia.

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