Berat Cultural Tour

BERAT. This remarkable city, known as the "one on one windows" town, derives its name from the distinctive architectural style of its central Mangalem neighborhood. As you venture into the heart of Mangalem, prepare to be captivated by its labyrinthine cobblestone alleys, evoking a sense of being transported back to a medieval era. The fatigue of traversing the streets of Mangalem is quickly replaced by a sense of wonder, as you find yourself surrounded by tightly clustered small windows, blurring the line between individual homes and interconnected structures.

Perched atop the hill overlooking Mangalem sits the majestic castle, accessed through a grand stone gate. Within its walls lies the renowned Onufri Museum, home to two extraordinary treasures: the world's only known purple and golden Codecs, which add an intriguing dimension to the history of this place.

Prepare to embark on a truly curious journey through time as you explore this enchanting city.
