For urban explorers, this is a sweet spot. Kavajë gives you the chance to explore a slice of the Balkans without getting lost in a complicated urban jungle.

Everywhere you go, you'll encounter friendly locals and stunning architecture. It's the perfect place to go if you love history, culture, and photo opportunities. One of the most notable buildings in the Old City is the Ethnographic Museum, which showcases the traditional Albanian way of life.

A short distance from the Old City, you can also find the city's most popular beach. It's called "Golem" and it's the perfect spot to lounge and soak up the sun. And if you're up for a little adventure, the nearby hills offer stunning hiking trails that showcase the region's natural beauty.

Kavajë might be small, but it packs a ton of charm and character. Whether you're here to get lost in the narrow streets of the Old City or lounge on the beach, this city delivers. It's the perfect getaway for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle of big cities for a few days.
