Little Paris of Albania, Korça

📌 Korça, Albania Korça is one of the largest and most important cultural and economic centers of Albania, located in the southeastern part of the country. Korça is a town famous for its cultural value and the best place to learn about the local culture is at the National Educational Museum.   Some things to do in this small city: 1) Visit Albania's largest Orthodox Church, the Resurrection of Christ Cathedral. 2) Walk down St.George Boulevard. 3) When you reach the top of St. George Boulevard, you’ll see a rather odd modern building near the tourist information office. The Panoramic Tower isn’t terribly tall, but it’s high enough to give you a pretty incredible view of the entire city from its observation deck. 4)At the First Albanian School & Museum of Education learn about the history of the Albanian language. 5) Sip a Turkish coffee at Old Bazaar. Pazari i Vjeter is the most beautiful neighborhood in Korça and an area that looks like it was pulled straight from a fairy tale; narrow streets, colored buildings, nice cafés, and small boutiques can be found everywhere you look. The first thing to do here is to go straight to Komiteti, a cool café located in the main square of Pazari. Once you’re here, order a Turkish coffee and watch people go about their errands in the Pazari.
