Enver Hoxha Pyramid

As a symbol of the notorious communism years, it resisted some attempts to be destroyed by previous governments. But it is still there, un-restored, a symbol of the mixed and contradictory history of Tirana.

This trip was so much better than I expected. The hike up was really fun, not too difficult but still a nice exercise. On the top of the rock our Guide Eri took as much photos and videos as we liked, he was patient and such an awesome guide. He even prepared lunch for us and handed us water to stay hydrated. We ended the hike with a refreshing dive in the lake and we had enough time to enjoy that as well. I highly recommend this trip as a solo traveler or a group, you will have so much fun.
Fantastic tour guide! I leaned so much!

A local Tiranian tour guide walks you to the highlights of Tirana. He provides many interesting insights on the history of Albania and tells you about today's life in Albania. The museum, skenderbeu squere, church ckpoint Charly, the new Bazar and the radio museum were just some of the stops. Great tour and great tips for out remaining time Albania. We would do it again anytime.
