Little Trouble in Big Tirana
... castle but we did get some good views of the town, the towering mountains behind us and even the sea way off in the distance.
Scrambling down a small hill along a cobble stone road, we came across the Dollma Teqe, a small place of worship for Bektashi Muslims. The building was formerly a church and a mosque but was vandalised by the communists (white washed walls). It was very pretty inside and apparently, the olive tree at front was planted by Skanderberg ...

Nu wordt het pas echt een gekkenhuis...dit wordt alleen maar erger naarmate ik de stad inkom en het is opletten geblazen.

Daarna de stad in gelopen voor zover ...
