Albania
Albania is well-known for its contributions to culture, which stretches back over two millennia. You can see artifacts and works of art created by the people who call Albania home in the country`s many museums, of which the Durrës Archaeological Museum and the National Art Gallery are two not to be missed. Albania`s beaches are very popular, ranging from the untouched and pristine to flashy and touristy. Finally, it can`t be ignored that Albania`s Communist-era history and relics set it apart even from other former Communist nations in Eastern Europe.
Macedonia
Macedonia, formerly known as the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), is known for its long and eventful history, stretching back to the Bronze Age. It is known for its strong religious tradition, and there are hundreds of picturesque Orthodox cathedrals and mosques that are each distinctly beautiful. North Macedonia is known as having an underrated food culture, with an emphasis on farm-to-table cuisine and fresh produce. For as small as North Macedonia is compared to its Balkan neighbors, the geography is surprisingly varied here, home to Europe`s two oldest lakes and over 50 mountains higher than 6,000 feet.

Tirana
Tirana, located in the center of Albania, is the country's capital and most important city with regard to politics, commerce, and culture. It is located on a plain next to Mount Dajt, and due to its geographical position it is among the sunniest places in the country. Multiple points of interest are located on or around Skanderbeg Square, the largest main square not just in Albania but in the entire Balkan region.
Visit and explore the Skanderbeg Square, National Museum of History, Mount Dajt, Et'hem Bey Mosque, Pyramid of Tirana, Grand Park of Tirana, National Museum of Fine Arts, Fortress of Justinian, Resurrection Cathedral, and so much more. -
Ohrid
Ohrid is the largest town on Lake Ohrid, considered by conservationists to be the most biodiverse lake in the world. Ohrid, in southwestern North Macedonia, was once known as the Jerusalem of the Balkans, and legend had it that the town had 365 churches, one for each day of the year. The number is smaller today, but many of these churches are still in beautiful condition and open to tourists. Both Ohrid and Lake Ohrid are on the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
Visit and explore the great Church of St. John at Kaneo, Samuel's Fortress, Church of St. Sophia, Church of Sts. Clement and Panteleimon, Ancient Theatre of Ohrid, Plaosnik Monastery, Robevi family house, Old Town, and so much more. -
Skopje
Skopje is the capital and largest city of North Macedonia. This vibrant city is one of the oldest in the Balkans, having been settled for six millennia, but its glittering appearance is much newer. Much of Skopje was master-planned after a devastating 1963 earthquake, with green spaces and wide avenues placed at high priorities. The classical feel to the areas along the banks of the Vardar River and Macedonia Square are a result of a beautification campaign completed in 2014.
Visit and discover the Macedonia Square, Skopje Fortress, Old Bazaar, Matka Canyon, Stone Bridge, Millennium Cross, Memorial House of Mother Teresa, Museum of Macedonia, Museum of the City of Skopje, Museum of the Macedonian Struggle, Macedonia Gate, and so much more.
