Berat is a charming city that has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008.

Mountain-worthy shoes are a plus!

Berat, the city of 1000 windows. There is a wonderful view from the fortress. The old town is absolutely worth seeing.

Finally, a short tour of the castle before continuing on to Divjake. Where Heiko gave a speech to his people, picture 17 😂

Berat, the city of 1,000 windows is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a must see in Albania. Accordingly, there are enough tourists here 😊
The steep path to the castle is rewarded with a great view. Inside the castle, which is actually a city wall, there are old houses and narrow streets.
In any case, a worthwhile trip!
