Step back in time at the Fortress of Bashtovë, a truly unique medieval stronghold resting on a quiet coastal plain near the Shkumbin River. Unlike most castles perched on hills, this Venetian-era fortress allows you to wander freely through its open-air ruins right from the entrance, making it incredibly accessible. You'll feel the history in the sea breeze as you explore the impressive stone walls and towers that once guarded ancient trade routes, all surrounded by vast, open fields.
