Berat

A UNESCO-listed town known as the “City of a Thousand Windows,” Berat features white Ottoman houses cascading down a hillside, a hilltop fortress, and winding cobblestone alleys. With its rich history and stunning views over the Osum River, Berat is a must-visit for architecture lovers and culture seekers.

Gjirokastër

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Gjirokastër is a stone-built town filled with traditional houses, narrow streets, and an imposing hilltop castle. Often called Albania’s “museum city,” it offers an authentic glimpse into Ottoman-era life and Balkan heritage.

Albanian Riviera

Stretching along the Ionian Sea, the Albanian Riviera is famous for its turquoise waters, dramatic coastal cliffs, and laid-back beach towns like Dhermi, Jale, and Himarë. It’s the ideal destination for sunbathing, swimming, and summer adventures by the sea.
