Customer Reviews
Kruja Old Bazaar is a charming cobblestone market dating back to the 17th century, filled with traditional shops offering handmade crafts, antiques, and local souvenirs, reflecting Albania’s rich cultural heritage.
A beautiful and authentic place full of history and charm! The Kruja Bazaar is the perfect spot to experience traditional Albanian culture — from handmade crafts and carpets to local souvenirs. The shop owners are friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere feels like stepping back in time. Definitely a must-visit when in Albania!
Large selection of souvenirs. At the end of the bazaar there is a castle with a beautiful view. If you are in the area then a must stop.
