What to visit in Tirana.
When visiting Albania, it’s hard to pass over the national capital, Tirana. Not only is it the largest city in Albania and the easiest place to start your journey from, Tirana is a fun, lively place to dive into the country’s culture and history. Skanderbeg Square is a worthy starting point as it sits right in the heart of the city and is home to the exceptional National History Museum, identified by the gigantic mosaic on its facade. Other fascinating historical attractions in the city center include the 18th-century Et’hem Bey Mosque and Bunkart 2, one of two Cold War bunkers in Tirana cleverly converted into art and history museums. The city is also full of cafés, bars, and restaurants that create a rich yet affordable nightlife for visitors to joyfully explore.
