The Delightful Kruja Old Bazaar, Albania
Kruja's Old Bazaar was the first real shopping experience since Tirana and turned out to be the last shopping experience in Albania. Shop here or forever hold on to your Albanian Lek's. The bazaar street is only about two blocks long but utterly charming. Extra-long eaves on the roofs, the street is cobblestone with a gutter running down the center (don't kill yourself walking on them like me), and shopkeepers sit on either side calling out invitations to take a look.
There is quite a bit of antiquey stuff mixed in with the postcards and Raki. Old wooden bowls, butter paddles, dowry chests, furniture churns, utensils and Kilims. None terribly expensive and I did my best to spend Leks, but just couldn't visualize a spot in my house for anything. Perhaps you'll have better luck...
ALBANIA, the historic OLD BAZAAR of KRUJA (Krujë), walking through
Krujë (definite Albanian form: Kruja, see also the etymology section) is a town and a municipality in north central Albania. Located between Mount Krujë and the Ishëm River, the city is only 20 km north from the capital of Albania, Tirana.
Krujë was inhabited by the ancient Illyrian tribe of the Albani. In 1190 Krujë became the capital of the first autonomous Albanian state in the middle ages, the Principality of Arbër. Later it was the capital of the Kingdom of Albania, while in the early 15th century Krujë was conquered by the Ottoman Empire, but then recaptured in 1443 by Skanderbeg, leader of the League of Lezhë, who successfully defended it against three Ottoman sieges until his death in 1468.
The Ottomans took control of the town after the fourth siege in 1478, and incorporated it in their territories. A 1906 local revolt against the Ottoman Empire was followed by the 1912 Declaration of Independence of Albania. In the mid-1910s Krujë was one of the battlefields of the conflict between the short-lived Republic of Central Albania, founded by Essad Toptani, and the Principality of Albania. In 1914 Toptani managed to seize the town but during the same year it was reincorporated by Prênk Bibë Doda in the Principality of Albania. During World War II it was the center of the activities of resistance leader Abaz Kupi.
The museums of Krujë include the Skanderbeg Museum, located in the environs of the Krujë Castle, and the national ethnographic museum.

[한국어 정보]
마을에는 13세기 무렵 크게 번성했던 오래된 시장이 있다. 당시 물물교환을 하던 곳이 지금은 관광객들을 위한 기념품을 판다. 기념품 중 눈에 많이 띄는 것은 카펫이다. 이곳에서 35년간 카펫을 만들어 팔고 있다는 작은 상점의 아주머니를 만났다. 아주머니는 주로 알바니아의 전통 문양으로 카펫을 만드는데, 하루 8시간씩 일주일을 꼬박 붙어있어야 하나를 완성할 수 있단다. 이 카펫은 우리 돈 15만 원 정도에 팔린다. “이곳 바자르는 약 3백 년 된 곳이며 시내 중심지였습니다. 사회주의 시절에도 이곳을 보호하려고 많은 노력을 해왔으며 현재 관광객들의 많은 사랑을 받고 있습니다. 많은 관광객이 방문하도록 홍보를 부탁드려요.”

The village has the oldest market, which greatly flourished around the 13th century. At the time this was where barter is now selling souvenirs for tourists. It is an eye-catching lots of memorabilia on the carpet. I met a lady in a small shop that sells carpets made here in 35 years. Aunt things will primarily be to create a carpet with traditional patterns of Albania, one must complete the attached full day per week for 8 hours. The carpets are sold in approximately ₩ 150,000 of our money. It was a bazaar where the city center is about 300 years. Socialism had been a lot of time trying to protect this place even much loved by tourists today. Many tourists'm begging you to visit the publicity.

The Old Bazaar Skopje, Стара чаршија, Çarshia e Vjetër
The Old Bazaar (Macedonian: Стара чаршија, Stara čaršija; Albanian: Çarshia e Vjetër) in Skopje is situated on the eastern bank of the Vardar River, stretching from the Stone Bridge to the Bit-Pazar and from the Skopje Fortress to the Serava river.The Old Bazaar falls primarily within the borders of Čair Municipality and is a protected national landmark.
The earliest known sources that describe the existence of a merchant quarter on the bazaar's territory date back to the 12th century.
Ottoman architecture is predominant in the Old Bazaar, although remains of Byzantine architecture are evident as well, while recent reconstructions have led to the application of elements specific to modern architecture.
In 2008, the Macedonian Parliament adopted a law recognising the Old Bazaar as cultural heritage of particular importance for the country to be permanently protected.
