Customer Reviews
We did not go inside but just walking around this area is beautiful. You can see the Adriatic Sea, the fields, Tirana City, etc. If weather permits, it would be nice to have a picnic up there.
Loved it. Approximately 1 hour drive from Tirana. There are few private lands available for parking. Parking costs 300L for the whole day. Castle is awesome. Museum costs around 400L for an adult. Not that great but would recommend if you want to learn about history of Albania and the balcony view is excellent. There are couple of restaurants with the view. Coffee, beer and salads are good. Adjacent to the castle is the Old Bazaar. Colourful and vibrant with large pebble roads. Common things are sensibly priced. There is a high street at the end of Old Bazaar with few eat ins and they got excellent view. We enjoyed our dinner with the sunset - lifetime experience
Nice, free castle above the Bazaar. Not a lot remains, and the tower is stabilized following earthquake damage (2019?). There is a nice museum inside covering Albania's national hero, Scanderbeg.
