Rozafa Castle

As we set out on our journey from Tirana, we are headed towards the beautiful North of Albania, with the majestic Castle of Rozafa as our first destination. Perched atop a hill, overlooking the city, the Castle is steeped in Albanian history, from antiquity to the Iliryan-Roman wars. Cascaded with legends, the Castle stands as a reminder of the timelessness of Albanian Epos. One of the highlights of the visit to Karavasta Lagoon is the boat tour through the lagoon to the bird-watching tower. This tour offers visitors a unique opportunity to see the diverse bird species that inhabit the area, including the famous flamingos that are present during the breeding season. The bird-watching tower offers a stunning panoramic view of the lagoon, making it an excellent spot for taking photographs. Overall, a visit to Karavasta Lagoon is an educational and enriching experience for nature lovers who want to gain a deeper appreciation for the importance of preserving the environment.
