Tirana, October 31 – Even at the end of October, Rozafa Castle continues to attract large numbers of visitors, including tourists from distant countries such as Australia.

Many express admiration for the castle’s impressive view and its centuries-old history. Several say they plan to return to Shkodër to explore more of its natural and cultural beauty.

“I’m from Australia, and this is my first time in Albania,” said one visitor. “I came here after hiking from Theth to Valbona. Since I had a free day in Shkodër, I decided to visit the castle. It’s large and full of history, from ancient times to the Venetian and Ottoman periods. It’s really fascinating. I’m planning to come back to see Lake Shkodër, which I couldn’t visit this time”.

A group of Spanish tourists shared similar impressions.

“I’m Emanuel from Spain. It’s our first time in Albania. We came mainly for the lake and the mountains. The view from here is fantastic,” they said.

Another visitor added, “We came from Spain. The castle is magnificent, full of captivating stories. I hope to return next time with my close friends”.

Rozafa Castle remains one of the most visited sites this tourist season. It stands as a symbol of Shkodër and a meeting point of history and mythology.

For visitors, a walk through the castle is a journey into the town’s rich past.
