Stepping Back in Time at Berat Castle

#holidayitinerary Exploring Berat Castle is like walking straight into history with stunning views all around. Perched on a hill overlooking the town, the castle feels more like a living neighborhood than just an ancient ruin, since people still live within its walls. The cobblestone streets, old churches, and little houses give it a unique charm that makes wandering around so enjoyable.

I loved climbing up to the viewpoints where you can see the red rooftops of Berat and the Osum River winding through the valley below. It is the kind of place where you can take your time, soak up the peaceful atmosphere, and imagine what life was like centuries ago. There are small cafés and local stalls inside, so it feels warm and welcoming rather than just a tourist site. Berat Castle is the perfect mix of history, culture, and incredible scenery, making it a must-visit spot in Albania.
