4 things to see in Tirana
Visiting Albania's capital city explores the past and present of a country that has known an intense history since its founding in the 1600s. Here are 4 things to see in Tirana!1- Piramida
The Piramida is an unforgettable and culturally significant building, completed just before the fall of communism. It was intended to be a museum to honor dictator Enver Hoxha. Now it is an abandoned building: several redevelopment projects are currently being evaluated.
2- National Historical Museum
This is the place to get some context on Albanian history. The museum is organized into pavilions, each covering a different period of the region's history. The most interesting in terms of archaeological riches is the Antiquities Pavilion, which houses a large collection of nearly 600 objects.
3- Skanderbeg Square
4- Et'hem Bey Mosque
This place of worship was completed in the early 19th century and is one of the city's most important landmarks. The exterior walls of the mosque depict idyllic landscapes such as forests and waterfalls, which is unusual and unique in Islamic art.Find your flight to Tirana now with Jetcost!
