ALBANIA: EXPLORING the wonderful WATERFRONT OF SARANDA (SARANDË) ????️
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's visit the beautiful waterfront of Saranda which is the capital of the District of Sarandë, Albania, and which is one of the most important tourist attractions of the Albanian Riviera. It is situated on an open sea gulf of the Ionian Sea in the Mediterranean 2 nautical miles from the Greek island of Corfu. The city of Saranda has a population of about 32,000. Near Saranda are the remains of the ancient city of Butrint, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

The country has many castles and archaeological sites. Capital Tirana centers on sprawling Skanderbeg Square, site of the National History Museum, with exhibits spanning antiquity to post-communism, and frescoed Et’hem Bey Mosque.

Shore Excursions to Sarande, Albania - Things to See and Do
The name of the lovely town of Sarande has changed throughout history to reflect the influence of the different cultures in the region. Originally the name derived from a Byzantine monastery honoring the Forty Martyrs of Sebaste which later, under the Ottomans, changed to Aya Sarandi. During Venetian rule Sarande was known as Santi Quaranta only to be changed during WWII to Porto Edda in honour of Mussolini's daughter. The name was changed again after WWII, after Albania declared independence from Italy.
Sarande is located on the Albanian Riviera and has a lovely Mediterranean climate, mild in winter, dry and hot in the summer. It's the best cruise port to see Albanian and Greek cultures coexisting peacefully together, evident in the city's mix of Albanian and Greek architecture.
The first stop at this quaint town should be the Forty Saints Monastery, form which the city got its name, built in honor of 40 Roman soldiers who refused to give up their religion and as a result were sent to Siberia. The monastery was built in the 6thcentury and on two levels. Unfortunately the second level was destroyed during WWII. It is possible to see the crypt of the monastery but only with special permission from the town hall.
You might like to head out from Sarande to Butrint, a UNESCO World Heritage Site just 20km away, and on the way stop to admire beautiful views of Corfu and the Ionian Sea from the 16th century Lekursi Castle built to protect the country from invaders from the sea.
Butrint, an UNESCO site, was first mentioned as a military settlement when Augustus, the first Roman Emperor, established a port there, after defeating Marcus Antonius and Cleopatra. The medieval history of Butrint is marked by power battles between the rival Byzantinum, Ottomon and Venetian Empires who have all left traces of their culture on the city and made Butrint interesting to visit on a shore excursion from Sarande.
The whole area around Butrint is a National Park, protecting a huge national and cultural heritage of Ottoman and Venetian castles with Roman villas as well as unspoiled nature.
Lord Rothschild and Lord Sainsbury raised money to finance archaeological excavations at Butrint, such as the Greco-Roman theatre which is still standing but whose floor is filled with water in which turtles and fish live. Or the baptistery of a 6th century church which boasts a Roman floor mosaic of peacocks, vines, birds and wine urns as it probably originally a Roman's private pool, the acropolis, the Greek Well of the Nymphs, the Temple of Aesculapius the city walls- but a huge proportion of the excavations have yet to be even started.
To the north of Sarande (around 90 min drive) there is a well preserved Ottoman town and UNESCO World Heritage Site, Gjirokastra, which is worth including on a full day shore excursion from Sarande. It lay at the crossroads of several important trade routes across Europe and the Mediterranean, and was protected by the formidable Gjirokastra Castle which is nowadays a Military Museum. The town is built on a hillside and is nicknamed 'the town of a thousand steps' but is immensely quaint and charming, with distinctive old stone houses clustered along narrow cobbled streets.
After enjoying beautiful sea views from the top of the hill head over to City Hall to see the 5th century ruins of the Jewish community Oncheasmos which once boasted a community center, school and a synagogue. Unfortunately most of the buildings were destroyed by earthquakes and invaders but you can still see some mosaic floors with animal designs, a menorah and other Jewish symbols among the tiles.
On the whole the town of Sarande makes and ideal stop over during cruising the Mediterranean. For more information about shore excursions in Albania please [mailto:tara@readyclickandgo.com]Email Tara

Albania travel vlog (Saranda 2019)
From the extremely hot and sunny Corfu, we travelled to Saranda in Albania which was some how even hotter and sunnier despite actually being able to see Saranda from Kassiopi where were staying.
We enjoyed the sea breeze from the top of a magnificent boat that we got from Corfu port.
In Albania we enjoyed local cuisine, explored the old ruins and beautiful harbour.

알바니아 해안도로를 따라 남쪽으로 가다 보면 산 중턱 사이에 옹기종기 모여 있는 마을들이 시선을 붙잡는다. 일명 ‘꽃의 리비에라’라고 불리는 이곳은, 약 80km의 구간으로 동유럽에서 가장 경치 좋은 도로로 손꼽힌다. 꽃의 리비에라를 따라가다 보면 알바니아 남부 최대의 휴양지로 알려진 사란다를 만날 수 있다. 해안가를 따라 빽빽하게 들어선 건물들이 휴양지로써의 이곳의 위상을 짐작게 한다. 하지만, 해변은 그리 붐비지 않아 여유로운 휴식을 취하기에 제격이다.

Apollonia Archaeological Park
???? #Apolloni , Fier Albania ????????
Apollonia (Albanian: Apolonia; Greek: Ἀπολλωνία κατ᾿ Ἐπίδαμνον or Ἀπολλωνία πρὸς Ἐπίδαμνον, Apollonia kat' Epidamnon or Apollonia pros Epidamnon) was an ancient Greek city. located on the right bank of the Aous river (modern-day Vjosë). Its ruins are situated in the Fier region, near the village of Pojani (Polina), in modern-day Albania. Apollonia was founded in 588 BCE by Greek colonists from Corfu and Corinth, on a site where native Illyrian tribes lived, and was perhaps the most important of the several classical towns known as Apollonia. Apollonia flourished in the Roman period and was home to a renowned school of philosophy, but began to decline in the 3rd century AD when its harbor started silting up as a result of an earthquake. It was abandoned by the end of Late Antiquity.

Hi Beautiful People I wish you all the best and happiness may your life shine like the sun rays and enlighten your path.
Continuing this adventure called Amazing Albania.
Follow me in this magical adventure and the places that I had the luck to see.
Visiting the ancient city of Butrint
Butrint, located in the south of Albania approximately 20km from the modern city of Saranda, has a special atmosphere created by a combination of archaeology, monuments and nature in the Mediterranean. With its hinterland it constitutes an exceptional cultural landscape, which has developed organically over many centuries. Butrint has escaped aggressive development of the type that has reduced the heritage value of most historic landscapes in the Mediterranean region. It constitutes a very rare combination of archaeology and nature. The property is a microcosm of Mediterranean history, with occupation dating from 50 000 BC, at its earliest evidence, up to the 19th century AD. Prehistoric sites have been identified within the nucleus of Butrint, the small hill surrounded by the waters of Lake Butrint and Vivari Channel, as well as in its wider territory. From 800 BC until the arrival of the Romans, Butrint was influenced by Greek culture, bearing elements of a “polis” and being settled by Chaonian tribes. In 44 BC Butrint became a Roman colony and expanded considerably on reclaimed marshland, primarily to the south across the Vivari Channel, where an aqueduct was built. In the 5th century AD Butrint became an Episcopal centre; it was fortified and substantial early Christian structures were built. After a period of abandonment, Butrint was reconstructed under Byzantine control in the 9th century. Butrint and its territory came under Angevin and then Venetian control in the 14th century. Several attacks by despots of Epirus and then later by Ottomans led to the strengthening and extension of the defensive works of Butrint. At the beginning of the 19th century, a new fortress was added to the defensive system of Butrint at the mouth of the Vivari Channel. It was built by Ali Pasha, an Albanian Ottoman ruler who controlled Butrint and the area until its final abandonment.

With lashings of fresh fish to whet your appetite, after a days wallowing in the crystal clear waters! Rounded off with a relaxing stroll through this charming town, visiting the few museums and the remains of the 6th century Synagogue.
The perfect location to relax and attune into the local pace of reality!
Saranda is an ideal base for exploring the many attractions of the southwest of the country, especially the amazing archaeological site of Butrint.
