Durres
The coastal and port town of Durres, the second largest city of the country, is one of the oldest centers of Albania and Europe. The city itself is not one of the most beautiful you’ll see in your Albanian itinerary, but behind the port and the ugly buildings of the coast, is hidden the largest amphitheater of the Balkans, a must-see destination for every history lover. The town hosts also an archaeological museum, Venetian tower, medieval bath and Byzantine market, all not-to-be-missed spots.
