There are UNESCO FACILITIES in Albania

There are three UNESCO sites in Albania:

Gyrocaster – a museum city, where tower-type houses built in the 17th-19th centuries have been preserved in large numbers and in excellent condition.

Berat is an ancient city with a fortress on a mountain and houses with many windows. Thanks to its unique houses, the city gained worldwide popularity and a second name - "the city of a thousand windows".

Lake Ohrid is the deepest lake in Europe (294 m), and one of the oldest lakes of tectonic origin on the planet. It is noteworthy that initially (in 1980) only the Macedonian part of the lake was included in the UNESCO list, and its Albanian part was recognized as a World Heritage Site only in 2019.

There is a cult of evening walks here

After dinner, most locals go for an evening walk ("xhiro") with their friends and family. Many dress beautifully and slowly leave to talk to neighbors and spend time with their loved ones - a very nice tradition. Some roads in cities are even specially blocked from cars for local residents to walk.

Albania & ndash; Country of bunkers

There are Bunkers in Albania. And there are many of them. The bunkers were built by order of the communist dictator Enver Hodge in 1967-1986 and were used until 1991. Khoja was so obsessed with the fear of enemy invasion that he ordered the construction of thousands of bunkers in the country. More precisely, more than 750,000 bunkers, which is an average of 5.7 bunkers per square kilometer. Some of the Bunkers have been converted into museums today, but most of them have been demolished, while others are reminders of Albania's communist past and are crumbling over time.
