Shortly Albanian experience from Podgorica
Since Podgorica is very near to Albanian border, you can choose to have this shortly Albanian experience in 5-6 hours duration.
Certainly the closest bigger city from Podgorica is Shkodra. Shkodra is one of the oldest cities in Abania. Located on the bank of Skadar lake within 20 km from the Adriatic coast and 120 km from the countries capital – Tirana.
After opening the borders this city is more and more attractive for tourists from all over the word. Trough the history this region also used to be a part of old Montenegro.
Definitely from the passing a border you will see completely different par of Europe. First of all huge contrast. On one side modern houses and luxury car on other some strange shape of vehicle. A lot of cows, bike, tractors on a middle of a street. Seems like anywhere can be a market place and you will surprise what can you find here.
The Rozafa fortress is the most impressive sight in town. Beautiful view on Skadar lake and the rivers Bojana, Drin and Kir. This fortress got the name by the legend about the women walled up in the castle for good luck.
We will walk around this old fortress and visit three yards inside the castle.
Next stop is a city center of Shkodra , visiting pedestrian streets, old mosque, monument of Mother Teresa, squers. Also we recommend here a lunch break sine Albanian culinary is famous and cheap.
Probably you also won’t find better cakes and sweets than here. Therefore you will have some free time for shopping and walking in the city.
We hope that you will enjoy in this Albanian experience and in a short period you will meet different culture.
