Albania
By:"Gillian Gloyer"
Published on 2008 by Bradt Travel Guides

This new edition, like the previous, places its emphasis on the cultural and outdoor activities of Albania rather than overdeveloped beaches. Tirana, the capital, is covered in detail, from Communist nostalgia and Skanderberg Square to nearby Mount Dajti National Park and the Krraba Pass. Albania covers sites such as Butrint with its complex ruins, dating back 2500 years, and the hilltop site of Byllis with its ruins of Illyrian houses, Roman buildings, and Byzantine basilicas. Full details on outdoor activities, including cycling routes and hikers' trails countrywide are also included.
