Krujë Castle in Krujë.

When traveling in Europe, you can't miss the "Kung Pao Chicken". Here we are at this "castle"👉🏻 Krujë Castle was built in the 5th or 6th century AD. It was built by the Scanderbeg to resist the invading Ottoman Empire. It is only 20 kilometers from the capital Tirana. The round ⭕️ building at the top is a museum. I didn't go in because it charges an entrance fee, so I just walked around. There are three parallel streets here, with many stalls selling souvenirs and some old things, such as sewing machines. Is this still a few decades ago? After the rain, the air here is particularly fresh, the ground is a cobblestone road, and the old things sold here are like China a few decades ago. The weather here in September is like a child's face. It was raining heavily during the meal, and the sun 🌞 came out after the meal. After strolling around here for about half an hour, we rushed to the next destination.

#tripaway Rich in history and tradition, Kruja is home of the patriots and the epicenter of Albania’s independence from the Ottoman Empire. It was here that Gjergj Kastriot Skanderbeg, Albania’s greatest national hero, defended the country from the invasion of the Ottomans. The National Museum dedicated to the hero is housed in the famous Kruja Castle and shows both the legendary hero’s history and the traditional way of life of the city’s population. The city’s famous bazaar serves as a bridge between this glorious past and the present, offering a rich array of traditional products made from local artisans. Home to one of the spiritual centers of the country, that of Sarisalltik, Kruja is a crucial destination for every local and visitor! #visitalbania#beautifulalbania #tripaway
