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 had not returned to its religious function until 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, a commercial space decorated in the Ottoman style and a main tourist attraction. Here, visitors can find various items such as bags, clothes, lamps, cosmetics, spices, and porcelain pieces.

We'll visit some popular stalls and then continue 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, which dates back to 1928.

After a 2-hour tour, we'll conclude by strolling through the central streets of the old town of Korçë.
