Tirana stands out as one of the most captivating cities in the Balkan Peninsula, thanks to its rich history. It was designated the capital of Albania only in 1920, and prior to that, it was merely a large village. From 1944 to 1990, Tirana, along with the rest of Albania, experienced a period of isolation under the Communist regime. Even today, remnants of this historical era can be seen in various parts of Tirana.

Additionally, visitors can take a cable car to enjoy a panoramic view of the entire city from an elevation of over 1,000 meters above sea level on Dajti Mountain.
