The city combines traces of Ottoman and European influences, the heritage of the XX century and modern colored facades, making walks in the center surprisingly contrasting and inspiring. Here, a sense of simplicity coexists with the drama of history, and the friendliness of the locals adds warmth to any journey.
Among the man-made attractions of Tirana are the Skanderbeg monument and the spacious Skenderberg Square, which are the historical and cultural heart of the city. In Old Tirana, it is worth visiting the Haji Etham Bey Mosque with its elegant minarets and fine painting, and next to it stands the Clock Tower, a symbol of time and urban history. The city is filled with monuments, interesting facades and iconic points that tell about the past and present of the capital.
Natural attractions around Tirana give an opportunity to relax from the bustle of the city: Mount Dajti with its ridge invites you to walk, and the cable car opens a panorama of the capital and surroundings. In the city of Lana there is a small river dividing the city into parts, and in the southern zone there is a large park with an artificial lake, where it is pleasant to walk and observe the life of the city.
