A spectacular orthodox cathedral and a large bazaar await us in this guided tour of Korçë, one of the most fascinating cities in southeastern Albania!
Tour of Korçë
At the indicated time, we'll meet in front of the Orthodox Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ to start this guided tour of Korçë. This cathedral was converted into a museum during the communist regime and resumed its religious function in 2004. After admiring the facade of this temple, we'll pass by the Museum of Education, which housed the first school in the Albanian language in 1887.
The tour will then continue in the Old Bazaar of Korçë, decorated in the Ottoman style. This commercial space is a main attraction of the city, offering bags, clothes, lamps, cosmetics, spices, and porcelain pieces. We'll visit some of its popular stalls, then proceed to the Mirahori Mosque and the Andon Zako Cajup Theater. Finally, we'll walk through the cobblestone streets of Korçë to the first brewery in Albania, established in 1928.
After a 2-hour tour, we will conclude by strolling through the central streets of the old town of Korçë.
