The Antigonea Archaeological Park ranks among the top summer destinations for local and foreign tourists. It lies amid lush landscapes and ancient stones rich with millennia of history.

Park director Shkëlqim Guçe said the team took concrete steps to welcome visitors and protect the environment. He added that the site grows as a key cultural tourism spot in the Drinos Valley, Gjirokastër County.

Guçe noted visitor numbers have increased compared to last year, with steady growth in tourists and locals alike.

Antigonea offers a living testimony to ancient civilizations and blends history with nature. The rise in visitors signals growing attention to Albania’s archaeological heritage. The ancient city ruins open a window to the past and invite visitors to experience history firsthand.

This moment creates a strong opportunity to boost cultural tourism and increase investment in preserving Albania’s heritage.
