Paleochristian Church

Reviewed By tiralb - Tirana, Albania

This is one of my favourite small churches in Albania. The fresco paitings are exquisite, especially some of the depictions of the devil.

Ngjallja e Krishtit Cathedral

Reviewed By IgorMarkovic - Smederevo, Serbia

Korca's Resurrection of Christ Cathedral is situated in its city center. Although it was built in 1995, it was actually rebuilt on the place where an orthodox church once stood before it was destroyed by the Hoxha's brutal regime. Today it is one of the main symbols of the beautiful city of Korca. The interior of the Cathedral is very interesting and inspirational, especially due to an unusual painting frescoes. All in all, if you're in Korca's center, don't miss this place!

Korca Old Bazaar

Reviewed By IgorMarkovic - Smederevo, Serbia

A combination of Korca's amazing old city architecture and modern novelties would probably be the best description for the amazing city square. The old bazaar has recently been renovated and has regained its old glory, thus becoming of on the most attractive tourist destinations in Albania. The atmosphere in the square is always lovely, even in the times of the pandemic. If you visit Korca without seeing its main square, then you missed its greatest gem! All recommendations!

Reviewed By Jipkereist - Berlin, Germany

If you ever dreamt of peeing in a peanut-shaped toilet, take your chance here. Menu is good, waiter suggested the raki for monks, which is honey and cinnamon flavored, and he was right! Loved it! In comparison to the Komiteti bar in Tirana, this place is a little more new and has a cleaner feel.
