Discovering the Timeless Beauty of Berat Town

#holidayitinerary Exploring Berat town is like stepping into a storybook where history and charm blend beautifully. Known as the “City of a Thousand Windows,” its hillside houses with rows of windows look stunning, especially when the sunlight hits them. Wandering through the old neighborhoods of Mangalem and Gorica, you find narrow cobbled streets, white Ottoman style houses, and peaceful corners that feel almost frozen in time.

Crossing the Gorica Bridge gives you one of the best views of the town, with the Osum River running gracefully between the hills. I really enjoyed the mix of history and daily life here, with locals going about their routines alongside curious travelers. Small cafés, traditional restaurants, and friendly faces make the experience even warmer. The atmosphere is calm yet full of character, perfect for just strolling without rushing. Berat town is truly a gem that captures both the heart and imagination of its visitors.
