The lakeside city of Pogradec remains one of the most visited destinations by both local and foreign tourists. It has become a year-round tourism hotspot.

Visitors and residents enjoy sunny days along the lake promenade. Roses are in full bloom, filling every corner of the city and drawing the attention of foreign tourists who stop to admire or smell them.

Prime Minister Edi Rama shared images from Pogradec. “With the fresh sweetness of Pogradec,” he wrote.

Pogradec officially opened the 2025 tourist season with various cultural events, sports activities, and fairs.

The city and its surroundings offer tourists a constant attraction. Nature, culture, and history give it grandeur, while the lake adds charm.

Beyond the lake, Pogradec boasts many natural beauties in its outskirts. The surrounding villages host important cultural and historical monuments worth visiting.

Everywhere in the city, beauty is present. One highlight is Lin, a small peninsula on the western shore of Lake Ohrid. It is home to a charming village of the same name.

Pogradec is also known for its medieval churches, such as the Church of Saint Bitri. Locals often call it the Church of Shën Bitri. It stands just a few hundred meters from the village of Potkozhan.

Tourists visit Pogradec in every season. But this summer promises to be even livelier. The city looks more beautiful, offers more events, and provides top-quality services.
