Albania Shkodër City Sightseeing Tours

In the morning, we drive to Shkodra, which is the most important city in north Albania. The city of Shkodra is situated in the north-western part of Albania, giving its name to the biggest lake in the Balkans. The oldest wall of the Shkodra castle dates from the 1st millennium BCE. The Roman historian Livy cited the town as the capital of the Illyrian king Gent, who fought the Romans in 168 B.C. We will go to Rozafa Castle, which offers breathtaking views of the lake and the three rivers merging into the Adriatic Sea. The city’s architecture is highly influenced by the Venetian style. Most of the guests are surprised to learn that most of the Venetian masks are handmade and produced in Shkodra. The city’s favorable geographic position has always been an important trading mark through the centuries, making it possible for different civilizations to encounter each other. We will be back in Durres this afternoon.
