Following an organization of the Cultural Heritage Committee in Canada, on July 8, 2008, Berat was admitted to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization , United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization . A small town that is received under the auspices of the largest cultural heritage protection organization was certainly a big event.
Following are some of the main reasons to consider Berat on the list of cities that you should visit this summer.
First of all, of course, we mention the town's castle , within the walls of which still live the city's inhabitants. Once you have walked on the steep cobbled streets, a drop in the shadows and the look of the Gorica neighborhood would be great to change the routine of the summer.
As we mentioned the famous neighborhood, let's talk a little about two of the city's most photographed destinations. Both neighborhoods feature narrow cobbled alleys. Mangalem seems to imitate the shape of a pyramid with white houses overlapping with one another. Therefore, Berat has also been named "City of One on a Window". It was this neighborhood that persuaded "The Telegraph" to rank Berat as the second among the 30 most beautiful cities in Europe.
We can talk too much about history and culture, but we all know that these issues are not very popular in the summer, so we leave them for later. Let's concentrate more on our summer guide.
During the evenings, you can freshen up with a cool drink on the main promenade of the city
and then walk past the Gorica Bridge and the Hangar Bridge.
Since we are on walks, do not forget to get an ice cream. We guarantee you are among the best you can enjoy, prepared with natural milk.
Cats worshipers will have a double enjoyment. In a travel blog , a foreign visitor lists as one of the three main reasons you should visit Berat, behind history and architecture, cats.
Yes, in the alleys of the city you can find the most friendly cats that have eyes closed, clean and nourished well. We do not know the connection of the inhabitants with the cats, so let it remain a puzzle.
