ESSENTIAL VISIT - Medieval city with remains from the Ottoman era, close to Tirana but given the complexity of traffic in Albania it can take time to get there and it is in a high area with a very complicated road. The most notable thing is the minaret or minaret of its mosque, which if it coincides, as happened to me, with the call to prayer, takes us to other areas of Muslim rule, without a doubt, and to access the castle, highlight its bazaar where perhaps the best purchases can be made. of souvenirs from all the towns in Albania, it is paved and has a multitude of shops or stalls, at the end of it we arrive at the Castle with a wonderful environment and more cared for than other areas of the country, it even has the usual letters of the city, The Castle was rebuilt and has a museum dedicated to the national hero Skanderberg, which is worth visiting after paying the entrance fee, this is where he was born. Without a doubt, it is a must-see if you visit the Albanian country.
