Our tour leader will pick you up from your hotel in Tirana to begin your day tour of Berat. Berat is known as the town of '1001 windows', part of UNESCO world heritage. Walking through the narrowed stone streets offers a fantastic view of the medieval old houses, with windows that seem to stand on top of each other. The city’s life began in the 6th-5th century B.C. as an Illyrian settlement. Later, in the 3rd century B.C., it was turned into a castle-city known as Antipatrea. Uniquely today, residents still live inside of the castle walls. Berat has it all; a beautiful medieval castle, ancient churches and mosques, a lively lower town consisting of grand old houses draped on steep hillsides, an old stone bridge, great museums and remains from the communist era in Albania. Berat is also known as the birthplace of Onufri, the famous painter of churches all-over the Balkans, distinguished for creating a specific reddish colour still difficult to imitate. We will continue our tour and visit the Gorica Neighbourhood and before returning back to Tirana we will stop by Belsh lake for another picturesque view. Take some free time to walk by the promenade surrounded by emerald waters or stop by a cafe. After this amazing day through history, culture and views you will be dropped back off at your accomodation in Tirana.
