Albania
Tirana, the Riviera & the South
The painted capital, two Ottoman museum-towns, and the Ionian coast.
Destinations
Tirana
A capital whose mayor painted the grey communist blocks in primary colours, and where a nuclear bunker is now a museum.
Gjirokastër
A UNESCO-listed Ottoman town of stone-roofed tower houses on a steep hillside under a castle.
Himarë & the Riviera
Ionian villages between mountain and sea, with beaches that were empty ten years ago and are filling fast.
Things to do
Accommodation & restaurants
EuropeDoor lists neither, yet. Both are business listings rather than editorial entries: they need an operator who claims them, a verification tier and a way to keep prices current, and all three are blocked on the same thing as everything else commercial here. How listings will work · what is built and what is blocked.
Publishing a scraped hotel list would be quick and would be the first unverified thing on this site. That is the trade being refused.
The record
What this atlas holds about Tirana, the Riviera & the South. The counts are derived from the region's own destinations and move when it does; the seasons and the daily cost belong to Albania and are repeated here rather than looked up.

Food, events and practicalities are on the country page
They belong to Albania rather than to Tirana, the Riviera & the South, and repeating them on every region page is how two copies of a fact start disagreeing. Albania →
