Durres city lies on the Adriatic coast and is the main commercial port of Albania.
Durres, Albania's second-largest city was known formerly as Durrahium and is one of the oldest towns in the country. Legend says that it was founded by Epidamnos, the Illyrian King of the area, who called it by his own name and named the port area after his grandson, Dyrrah. It was for centuries the largest port on the Adriatic and the start of the Via Egnatia to Constantinople/Istanbul.
We visit the Roman amphitheater (20,000 seat capacity the largest one in the Balkans) and the Archaeological Museum, situated near the sea and rich in objects excavated in Durres. We also visit the Roman Baths behind the Aleksander Moisiu Theatre in the central square.
Then we see the Palace of the former King Zog. Return to Tirana.
