This is followed by historic Kruja with the Skanerbeg Museum, Albania's national hero, and the port city of Durres on the Adriatic.
Other stops will be the excavations of Apollonia, the Llogara National Park, the Albanian Riviera, the excavation site of Butrint, the cultural metropolis of Korca, the mountains and of course Ohrid, the "Jerusalem of the Balkans", with the lake of the same name.
