Morning, Skanderbeg Square

Walk around the square to place the Opera House, the Et’hem Bey Mosque and the clock tower. Access to the interiors is checked separately.

Midday, Bunk’Art 2

The museum in the centre is close to the square and fits into a walking route. Check which parts you can visit if you are with someone who finds stairs difficult.

Afternoon, the Pyramid and Blloku

Cross the Lana to the Pyramid and carry on through the streets of Blloku. You can end the walk here without crossing the centre again.
