There is no doubt about it: Berat is one of the most beautiful places in Albania. It is also dubbed "the town of a thousand windows" due to the Ottoman-style houses with their large windows all facing the river. Berat is a UNESCO world heritage site and there is so much to explore. The town has over 2,000 years of history and you can climb up the castle for a great view or walk over to the other side of the river, to get a better look at the 1,000 windows.
