👉 The Lumbardh River goes through Prizren city, thereby dividing the city in two almost identical parts. Over the Prizren Lumbardh, many bridges have been built in history, but undoubtedly the most special one, which also became a symbol of the city, is the Stone Bridge.

👉 The Stone Bridge is located in the center of the old town. Historical resources do not provide any information on the accurate time of its construction. Based on materials used, the style, technique of construction, it may be assumed that the bridge was built by the end of the 15th Century, or the early 16th century.

Day 2️⃣ & 3️⃣

Two days filled with activities! Students and their professors explored the beautiful and the vivid city of 🌇 Tirana. They had the chance to visit a lot of interesting sites, including Bunkart 2, this breathtaking ☢️ ex-nuclear bunker, now turned to a museum. They also went to 🚡 Mount Dajti, one of Albania’s most popular tourist attractions.

After Tirana, they headed to ➡️ Krujë, where they first visited its bazaar, which is famous for being one of the oldest in Albania. The construction of the beautiful and fascinating marketplace of Krujë dates back over 400 years.

👉 It is obvious they did not miss the chance to visit The National Museum, also known as the Skanderbeg Museum or the Kruja Museum. The name of the museum is in the honor of the Albanian national hero Gjergj Kastrioti Skënderbej.

🏖️ Their activity did not stop in Krujë! They continued their journey to Durrës... of course to spend the rest of their days to get some “vitamin sea”.

Have a great time, and see you tomorrow in Prishtina!
