Durrës and Tirana
Durrës, the ancient Dyrrachium, is Albania’s main port and its busiest beach town, with a long sandy shore, a seafront promenade and one of the largest Roman amphitheatres in the Balkans. Tirana has changed fast since the 1990s: grey apartment blocks were painted in bright colours and patterns, new towers have gone up, and parks and cafes fill the centre.
