Overview of the tour in Tirana

The tour includes the main landmarks of communist history in the city of Tirana: The monument of the unknown soldier, National Museum of History, the National Palace of Culture, former headquarters of the Albanian Communist Party among others.

We'll provide a clear picture about how Albanian people feel about their communist history today.
