Quest tour of Kruja: Following the Footsteps ...

If Marvell had existed in the 15th century, we would definitely have seen the blockbusters "Skanderberg: Far from Home" and "Skanderbeg: Homecoming." And their main action would have taken place in the city of Kruja. Your walking tour begins near the monument of Skanderberg. This man is compared to Alexander the Great, his portrait is placed on the largest note of local currency, and lots of streets and squares are named after him. You will then see the Fortress of Kruja. It was the stronghold of Kastrioti's family. Until the very death of Skanderbeg, the Ottomans couldn't take it. You definitely won't miss the Adriatic balcony, where you will enjoy a breathtaking view of the city from the platform near the old tower. Then you can try to haggle at the authentic old bazaar and get a good discount on silver jewelry. If you are curious enough and have some energy left, you can climb the hiking to the tomb of Sari Saltyki and find some fantastic views along the mountain trail. Let's hit the road!
