The Clock Tower of Tirana, built in 1822 by Etëhem Bey Mollaj, stands as a monument of culture. At 35 meters tall, it was once the city's tallest building and offers picturesque views. Moving on to the Old City Center, we explore the legacy of Sulejman Pasha, who founded Tirana in 1614.

It features colorful stalls selling local produce, crafts, and souvenirs, alongside trendy cafes and restaurants. The architecture reflects both contemporary design and historical influences, creating a lively atmosphere to explore and enjoy. Our journey leads us to the Castle of Tirana, a Byzantine-era remnant with roots dating back to 1300.

At Bunk'art 2, an unparalleled museum inside a preserved Communist-era bunker, we delve into Albania's history from 1912 to 1991.
