What to visit
The castle above town, still inhabited within its walls, gives the clearest view over the white houses stacked below it. The old quarters on either side of the river — Mangalem and Gorica — each have a slightly different character.

Selected pickup city: Berat
Destination guide
Berat's "thousand windows" hillside of Ottoman houses is one of Albania's most photographed sights, and the old town's steep, narrow streets mean a car is for getting to Berat, not around it. A rental works well for combining Berat with Tirana or the coast on a wider loop.
Route ideas by car
Berat sits roughly midway between Tirana and the southern coast, making it a natural stop on a longer north-south Albania route rather than a dedicated round trip.
Local rental tips
Berat's hillside streets are steep and often cobbled — park in the lower town and walk up rather than attempting to drive into the historic quarters.
