In
the heart of the
Mediterranean, on the
Adriatic and Ionian Seas,
Albania is fast becoming one
of the world's most
interesting getaways. Still
relatively unspoiled by
globalization, tourists will
notice an inspiring mixture
of civilizations and
cultures - making this
European country truly
unique.
Nestled in between Greece,
Macedonia, Kosovo, and
Montenegro, and across the
Adriatic from Italy, Albania
boasts blue and turquoise
seas, beautiful
beaches, snow peaked
mountains, rivers, lakes,
and forests. As well as
stunning nature, Albanians
themselves are famous for
their hospitality, and
tourists are welcomed with
heart-warming generosity.
Albanian history and culture
is fascinating. Butrint, one
of the world's archeological
wonders - and a UNESCO World
Heritage site - in the south
of Albania provides a
glimpse of Mediterranean
civilization from the Bronze
Age through the Greek,
Roman, Byzantine,
Venetian
and Ottoman periods - all
atop a cliff overlooking
Corfu. It's not to be
missed!
Home of both Mother Theresa
and the great 15th Century
hero Skanderbeg, Albania
today offers not only beach
and mountain holidays, but
also a vibrant city life, a
relaxing outdoor cafe
culture and you will see
that it's quickly evolving
in a myriad of directions.
Discover Albania for
yourself!
