What to do in December 2023 in Tirana

Well, it is the most beautiful time of the year. The Christmas market and tree, the light decorations, and the nightlife are exploding in Tirana during this time. Every year, the Christmas Market will be in the heart of Tirana, at Skanderbeg Square, the main venue for all celebrations and events.

The Christmas tree will be lit up by the first days of December, and the whole city center and neighborhoods will be decorated.

Well, the museums are open until the last days of December. You can enjoy the culture and history and book the tours you want. We suggest you take bike tours around Tirana Lake Park and enjoy the walks around the city.

What to do in August 2023 in Tirana

Tirana in August is equal to hot days + vacation. So this time around people decide to take a break and enjoy their summer. That doesn’t mean necessarily  to go outside of Tirana thou. In fact many decide to stay in vicinity and choose a more comfortable and cheap way to pass the heat of the summer. For example:

 

People could use a relaxing stroll in the evening at the "Skanderbeg" square and around other parks like the Rinia park.

 

The Artificial Lake Park is another destination for the long summer nights, where people can enjoy walking in nature and by the fresh breeze of the waters of the lake. Or take the small train that goes around the park,  or even open air cinemas under the stars and music festivals that they hold frequently.

@farazrazz

 

Still one of the best way to get away from the heat would be the pool, Tagan Swimming Pool. And that not only because of the water but also for the amazing view and atmosphere that it offers.

If you have a thing for hiking, then you will probably love the Canyons of Erzeni and the Eye of the Cyclops were you can swim in those crystal turquoise waters.

This place full of nostalgia will bring you memories of the past and bring you back to your happy childhood. That's because Turtles Pizza is inspired by the Ninja Turtles cartoon series.

Kazerma e Cerenit

A special stream, the latest innovation, Ceren's Barracks was a place that left me speechless. The originality and preservation of the old brought to the clientele was something I as a visitor had not seen before.


As you entered, the first thing you noticed was the staff, dressed in military uniforms, who very welcomingly escorted you to the entrance of the barracks.
At the entrance on the left were the dormitories and on the right was the information point and the souvenir shop where also original products of the barracks, various liquids, other drinks etc. were sold.
The dormitories, the ten rooms, were also adapted to the environment and unusual. Kept in a military style but neat they made you feel like you were part of a movie or video game.
While all the products they served were natural, made there by the staff of the barracks themselves, there were small workshops for noodles, vegetable and fruit greenhouses, etc.
A special area was created for the events, also preserved according to the style of the barracks, covered with glass and lights, with different plants to attract you at first sight.
The part of the restaurant was also special, the staff did not lack clothing according to different military ranks, where the person with the highest rank was distinguished from the lowest by the clothing and decorations. The food was also enjoyed with the sounds of light music played in the restaurant premises on a small piano.
At the exit of the main area of the barracks, the second part of the tourist experience was the museum located in one of the fifteen tunnels once used for the army. The crossing from one side of the road to the other was arranged with a temporary bridge, a tube that added to the spirit of adventure when you crossed it. The museum presented only the items, military clothing found in the tunnel, military reserves, psychological books for the army, etc., designed in a perfect and terribly interesting and unique way, but among these items there were three televisions with playstation where you could play modern war games.
In anticipation of the continuous investments and ideas that have been thrown for this area, for example the use of tunnels as playgrounds, paintball, etc., my expectations increased and my curiosity makes me visit for the second time to see the development of this special place. where the work until now leaves great impressions.
I would recommend this place to anyone, after all if you are not into adventure and history, Ceren Barracks will make you so.
