Overview
The city of Shkodra is one of the oldest cities of Albania, with a history of thousands of years. For its geostrategic position as the main axis connecting Albania with Montenegro, and other countries of the region, the city of Shkodra is the capital of Northern Albania.
Shkodra is located about 90 km away from Tirana, the capital of Albania. It lies northwest of the country between a field, hilly and mountainous relief, near the Adriatic Sea and Lake of Shkoder, which also define its Mediterranean climate.
Shkodra is the city of beautiful civic traditions where different cultures coexist through centuries in harmony. The city’s main tourist destination is Rozafa Castle, a thousand-year-old monument erected on a rocky hill at the entrance to the city of Shkodra, surrounded by the Buna and Drin rivers.
