- In this video we wanted to show the beauty of Tirana which is the capital city of Albania. For us we are astounded why cities like Athens, London or Paris are considered more visitable than this city as it is simply much more beautiful with its unique districts, good prices, friendly people, beautiful architecture and incredible landscapes!

Hi guys. Tirana may not have the most beautiful buildings in the world, but with its geographical layout and fantastic climate where the sun greets you in every corner of the city, it is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
Note: After visiting the Albanian coastline with its magical beaches, and after reaching the peaks of the Albanian Alps where the snow meets the sky and the fresh air gives you health, then tell those friends who asked you what you would do in Albania? simply say that you visited a piece of heaven . Nice video
You are right! Something needs to be done about the main buses terminal
The ‘Bus Rapid Transit’ project, worth 110 million Euros is under construction right now & major state of the art train station which will connect the airport & the coastal city of Durres will open (I think) in March 2025. The city of Tirana will have 2 bus stations and the first one is already open. This modern TIRANA EAST BUS TERMINAL opened in 2023 and is located near the intersection of E852 (Tirana-Elbasan) Highway with Tirana Ring road, in the South-East suburban area of Tirana and is open and functioning for over a year now.
This is great news, Tirana is in desperate need of a nice modern bus station to suit it's beautiful city. It was the very first impression we had of the city and as a capital city we were surprised by how poor the quality of the main terminal for the city was. It's great to hear that Tirana is still being invested in and I look forward to seeing these new developments in the train station and bus station when we return. Thank you for the information and taking the time to comment, it's much appreciated 🙂
why film on a potato?
You know, I actually agree, the camera I used in this video is rather decent, but I had just got it and didn't know how to use it to it's best potential. We was watching it back a while ago (as we film them in advance and release them each week) and was like yikes, the quality could be a lot better haha! Debated whether or not to post it but most people can look past it on smaller channels with a smaller budget like ours. Thankfully, I spent quite a few weeks tinkering with the camera and filming practice shots around my city and learnt how to use it, so the videos from Wales which get released two weeks from now, the quality drastically improves as I actually realised that I was setting everything up wrong. A big part of good content is video quality, so I do agree and they do subsequently get better after the Montenegro/Albania series. Thanks for watching! 🙂
Since you mentioned all the good stuff about my country I have a few moans which even i who now living in UK get a reverse culture shocked over. “Avash Avash” is roughly translated slowly slowly but in our context it means take it easy, don’t stress but what it really means is everything happens the day after next Tuesday.
The queue jumping thing can be explained as a psychological residue of 50 years of brutal scarcity under the communist regime where qeueing meant ending up with nothing.
Every car wants to run you over and you could be waiting hours on a side of a zebra crossing.
The macho culture. You probably noticed unless a couple or family males and females sit in separate tables in coffee shops and they signal or pose to each from a distance but hardly ever goes beyond that, something which I find hilarious to watch. If a man dares approach a woman his friends will make fun of him as being gay or overly romantic 😂.
Beauty standards among the young which irritates me. Although Albanian people are naturally good looking all guys want to look like white drill rappers and all girls like Kim Kardashian in Instagram behind 20 layers of filtration and makeup
Some very interesting insights, I've heard mixed things from Albanians about Albania. I can definitely agree with the Avash Avash thing you mentioned, in comparison to the UK things seem a lot more chilled and everyone seems to take life at a more relaxed pace. Thank you for sharing some insight and knowledge as a citizen of Albania, it's always interesting to hear the thoughts of the people of the country so we appreciate it and appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment too my friend! 🙂❤️
@@TeamMcGrathno Thank you man. It’s refreshing to hear a Brit experiencing and making up their own mind about Albania and Albanians cause your politics and media loves a bit of Albanian bashing, now I hate being a victim as couldn’t care less and I know we’re yet another convenient target to divert the attention of middle Englanders from the real failures of your political system. Anyway I’ll stop blabbering. Welcome and stay curious 😊
@@aureliogj7966I agree man, I hear a lot of negative stuff in the press and from people about Albanians, yet every Albanian I have personally met has been kind and welcoming to me. There is probably bad people from Albania, but there is in England and every other place on this planet too. But to vilify an entire nation because of a few people is wrong and I for one hope that people wake up and realise that the people of Albania are good hearted and kind people. Not once did someone try to rip me off in Albania and not once did I feel threatened, but I got robbed in Greece and noone ever gives the Greeks a hard time, and it's because the few shouldn't ruin it for the many, but it seems that people don't give Albanians the same leeway and I'll never get that. Thanks for watching and commenting as always too! 🙂
