Questions travelers ask

What is there to see around Tirana?

The capital itself, the castle and bazaar at Kruja, and the coast and Roman remains at Durrës — each within an hour or so of the city.

When is the best time to visit?

All year. Spring and autumn are the most comfortable; the coast is a summer season of its own.
