Berat
Perched along the banks of the Osum River and framed by the Tomorr Mountains, Berat is a living museum of Albanian history and charm. Known as the “City of a Thousand Windows,” its white Ottoman-era houses cascade down the hillsides, their symmetrical windows gazing out like watchful eyes over the cobbled streets below. Berat is more than just a pretty face—it’s a place where time slows down. Sip homemade raki in a shaded courtyard, browse artisan shops tucked into old stone buildings, or take a day trip to the Osumi Canyon, where turquoise waters carve through dramatic cliffs. Whether you're a history buff, a nature lover, or simply chasing beauty off the beaten path, Berat offers a soulful slice of Albania that lingers long after you leave.
