Overview of your Tirana tour:

Elbasan, one of the largest cities in Albania. In fact it has an early Ottoman name, but definitely an Illyrian settlement since the 4th century BC. Settled on the valley of Shkumbini river, developed and expanded as a station along the famous Via Egnatia road. The Romans called it Ad-Quantum mansion. Often is mentioned as "The Cradle of the Education" due to the first training teachers college, or the "The town of roses" due to many gardens with roses inside the old town. Many others called it "Town of music" related to the home place of the greatest Composer and musician of the central Albania, Master Isuf Myzyri . The city is well-known due to its special traditional desert (Ballakume), but also for its delicious soft drink "Boza". Not far from the city, situated on the slope of the hill opposite Selca village we'll visit the Royal Tombs of Selca e Poshtme. More on the site. . . . .
