Mount Dajti looms majestically over Tirana, offering a beautiful escape into nature with its national park, dense forests and panoramic views. You can reach the top either by taking the Dajti Ekspres cable car — the longest in the Balkans — or enjoy a scenic drive. Once at the summit, you'll find several restaurants where you can savour a meal while enjoying the serene landscape. The sense of standing above the city, with expansive views stretching in every direction, gives you a feeling of being on top of the world. Dajti Mountain National Park also offers an adventure park for kids and adults, a rotating bar, minigolf, hiking and mountain biking trails, as well as many romantic spots for picnicking.

The National Museum of History in Albania is the largest museum in the country, housing a wealth of national treasures. Though the museum is closed for renovation until 2028, you can still admire its impressive modernist mosaic façade, which proudly depicts the victorious and proud Albanians from Illyrian times through to WWII.

The Gerhard Marcks House is fully dedicated to sculpture. This internationally recognised museum is home to the vast majority of the artworks created by Gerhard Marcks, a sculptor from Berlin who, among other things, gifted the city of Bremen with his famous statue of the fairy tale 'The Town Musicians of Bremen'. The collection continues to expand, with the addition of works by other sculptors, including contemporary artists.
