My incredible seventh day in Albania continued in the beautiful UNESCO World Heritage town of Berat! Join me as I explore an old Ottoman village and lots of other local attractions! 🧳 BALKAN PEARLS TOUR OPERATOR: http://www.balkanpearls.com/ 🚗 RENTAL CAR ALBANIA:   / rentalcaralbania   My boy Erjan from Travel Media EU and I started our afternoon adventure on Gorica Bridge, which spans the Osum River. Across the bridge is the Ottoman village, which is said to have a thousand windows! On the left bank of the Osum River is Gorica, where you’ll find lots of historical homes and buildings. Walking along the stone houses was like stepping back in time to the 18th century! It had a gorgeous Ottoman/Mediterranean feel and reminded me of Cannakale, Turkey. Because Berat is a UNESCO site, when home renovations occur, they must be in the same style as before. Next, I saw an old home with a gate that was falling apart, and the 19th-century Church of Saint Spiridon. This side of the city is less touristy than the other, but it was really beautiful and authentic. Across the river was the Mangalem area, which lies at the foot of the castle hill. It was really pretty, but I could see more restaurants and hotels there. There, we saw the 16th-century Bachelor’s Mosque, which was under construction. Along the street were restaurants, hotels, and souvenir shops, including the Unique Art shop, which sells beautiful wood carvings of sites around the city. I bought one for €65! Next, we headed to the Berat National Ethnographic Museum, which is located in a 400-year-old traditional house. It shows the way the house was used, and displays clothing, head pieces, pottery, textiles, and more. Next, we drove up to Berat Castle in the Kalaja area, which is located on the castle hill. The castle is over 2,400 years old and dates back to Illyrian times. The castle is unique because it’s a living castle, so people still live there! It’s full of restaurants, souvenir shops, and stone houses. There’s also a small church. Then, we stopped by Restorant Onufri for lunch on their terrace! We started with rakija and then got several dishes: stuffed cabbage; okra; fërgesë with red peppers, green peppers, tomatoes, and feta cheese; beans; salad with cucumber, tomatoes, onions, and feta; eggplant; moussaka; cannellonis; byrek; and chicken with rice! The beans were moist yet crunchy and full of thyme. Next was the fresh and juicy eggplant, and the okra, which contained thyme, tomato sauce, and oil! Next was the flaky byrek, which contained a nice, fluffy cheese. The stuffed cabbage was stuffed with rice and tomatoes! Then, I had more strong rakija! The cannellonis had minced meat, tomatoes, and cheese on top. Next was the moussaka, which contained meat, potatoes, tomatoes, and eggplant. I loved the crispiness on the bottom! The fërgesë was oily and full of pepper flavor. The chicken and salad were also great, but the eggplant really blew me away! After lunch, we headed to Muzeu Onufri, which is dedicated to Onufri, a famous 17th-century painter. It used to be an 18th-century church. Outside in the courtyard are beautiful preserved frescoes from 1797, but I couldn’t film inside the museum. Then, we went to the walls atop the hill, where you get incredible views over Berat, and the watchtower where we got stunning views of the entire area. I could see the city, the river, the old town, the bridges, and the mountains. This was one of my favorite places in Albania so far! Where have you been?
