    • dusty and polluted are the best word to define how is have a stroll there... everything is a mess.. everybody makes whatever they want and theres no any charm on the streets or beauty places where shoot nice pics... the mostly places seem collapsed, the kerbs doesnt exist or almost doesnt exist zebra crossing scarcely respected

    • onr of the best sightseeings in this polluted city... its just behind the archeologic museum in one end of Deshmoret boulevard ....its a peacefull place far away from traffic jams.. i couldnt believe that could exist a relaxed spot like that into such a city... no doubt it was the best discovery in that day

    • A lot of paths run around the lake and jogging and bycicle are some of the most practiced activities... be careful at evening , its crowded by mosquitos !!

    • that was the same street that runs where the local buses leave to othe cities into Albania... at the same time i was passing by i saw that it was the most typical gipsy quarter with its typical stuff and their typical live...and i fancied to make that pic, just like a curiosity

    • Sheshi Avni Rustemi is the tiny and beautiful square where its located the market place, i walked from Sheshi Skenderbeg square by a wide avenue full of shops where you can find a lot of local souvenirs ...once you arrive to the market square its absolutelly nice stop for a while and behold how life pass by and locals do.. this aint the typical market like western europe lol its more improvised !! jajaja

    • This is one of my last sights from Tirana.. i guess that i wont come back .. nothing special live there and not much attractions push me to come there one more time... maybe the ionian coast at the southern end of the country would be worth to visit

     An experience that I am sure you do not want to repeat, maybe with a local person as a guide you may have seen it in a different way. Still it is a place you felt you wanted to visit.    		nora_south_africa Sat Apr 19, 2008 18:08 UTC
     Thanx for a very interesting and informative page!
