Top 10 Highlights

Albanias Resilience

In Albania, you can discover bunkers scattered across the landscape, remnants of the country's communist past under Enver Hoxha. With an estimated 173,000 bunkers built during his rule, these structures serve as a unique testament to Albania's history and resilience. Today, some bunkers have been repurposed as cafes, art installations, and even homes, offering visitors a fascinating glimpse into the country's complex past and creative present.

Disco and Dancing

Albanians consider dancing a sport, with disco and clubbing being popular pastimes. While traditional ring dancing remains prevalent among many, the younger generation often indulges in organized dance events. Sporting fashion reminiscent of Greece or Italy, they eagerly welcome foreigners to join their revelries. This fusion of tradition and modernity highlights Albania's vibrant social scene, where each step on the dance floor tells a story of cultural evolution and youthful exuberance.
