Archaeological sites Albania

Archaeological sites in Albania span Illyrian, Greek, Roman and Byzantine history, and these articles are guides to several of the most interesting. Many sites are in quiet countryside with few visitors, so it is often possible to walk the ruins almost alone. Our guides cover Antigonea, a Hellenistic city above the Drino valley named by King Pyrrhus after his wife, and Phoenice and Mesopotam Monastery between Saranda and Delvina. Another article traces the history of Durres, including its Roman amphitheatre.
