Once a beacon of socialism in Europe, Albania is now a land of the future.

I came to Albania for work to assist with a construction project. After an 11-hour flight, I finally arrived in Tirana, where I was warmly welcomed by local Chinese colleagues. They arranged for me to stay at their regular hotel and treated me to a local specialty meal. I started work the next day. After working for about a week, I had a few days off. Local colleagues took me around the city. I also summarized a detailed guide. If it helps you, remember to like and favorite it! 1. Attractions - Skanderbeg Square: The central square of Tirana, with a statue of Skanderbeg on horseback. Free to visit. - National History Museum: Displays the historical changes in Albania. The ticket price is about 300 lek (about CNY 20). - Pyramid of Tirana: Unique architectural style, free to visit outside, there may be a small fee to enter. - Enver Hoxha's Tomb: Witness a period of history. Free to visit. 2. Food and prices - Roast lamb: One of Albania's specialty dishes, a serving costs about 800-1500 lek (about CNY 50-100). - Puff pastry pie: There are different fillings to choose from, the price is 200-500 lek (about CNY 10-30). - Albanian coffee: You can taste it in local cafes, a cup costs 100-300 lek (about CNY 5-20). 3. Precautions - Language: Albanian is the main language, and English is relatively limited. You can download a translation app in advance. - Transportation: Public transportation is not very developed. You can choose to take a taxi when traveling, but be sure to choose a regular vehicle and negotiate the price in advance. - Safety: Generally safe, but be careful to keep your personal belongings safe in crowded places. - Climate: Tirana has a mild climate, hot in summer and cold in winter. Prepare suitable clothes according to different seasons.
