Though Sauk might not have many top sights, you can venture to the surrounding area to see attractions like Grand Park of Tirana and Mother Albania Statue.
After visiting Ministry of Defense, make a plan to see the other sights and activities in Tirana. While you're here, you can savor the top-notch restaurants.
Colorful communist-era bunkers and striking modernist buildings create a fascinating backdrop for exploring Skanderbeg Square and the National History Museum. Take the Dajti Ekspres cable car up Mount Dajti for panoramic city views, then sample traditional byrek pastries at the lively New Bazaar.
Albania is a country that has only recently become a popular destination and is a city finding its feet in a new world after years of communism which lends it to have an incredibly brutal and sad history. Tirana is a beautiful city, friendly And new

Tirana still looks a little rough around the edges, but there is a lot of investment there right now and very much an up and coming place. The people are very friendly and can't do enough for you. Would highly recommend a trip to the mountains also.

Such a beautiful city, people are lovely, the food is fantastic and there's quite a bit to see. Would highly recommend the Dajti Elsie's, views are stunning and the ride, although filling you with fear, leaves you with a rush of excitement.

Most of the interesting places are around 1 km radio from Skandenberg Square. Unfortunately, the History Museum is being remodeled so I was unable to see it. Also remember that for international buses, the station is The East station/Lindor

Tirana is a favorite city or ours - always something happening like festivals, concerts, etc (although they may want to promote those things better as they're usually only word of mouth) upscale bars and restaurants and very affordable.

We were introduced to Albania by our daughter's partner and although nervous on initial visit in 2019 we have been going back annually. Plenty of restaurant choices and lots to do, the cable car and the park are a must.

Definitely worth a visit. It's incredible what they have managed to achieve and build in the less than 35 years since they ditched Communism. This country is going to go places in the future!

"Our stay at the Hotel Elisa was excellent and I highly recommend it! Klenisa at the front desk was one of the best hotel employees I have ever encountered. She was always very gracious and helpful during our stay
Our room was very large and had a great view of the mountains from the 9th floor. I believe there are only 2 rooms on the top floor, so it was perfectly quiet. The complimentary spa facilities were lovely
The hotel is conveniently located, it’s a pleasant walk to Skanderbeg Square as well as many restaurants. I would definitely stay there again "
"It was particularly quiet. It felt like a little hideaway from a city that’s already buzzing. It was relatively central. The staff is lovely, very polite and helpful. Great hospitality. My room was divine, very spacious. Facilities are very modern. It was my first time in Albania and they made me feel very safe. "
"No elevator. Reception area is the dental office. Working air conditioner. Keycard entry. Very clean. I had a full length mirror in my room. Staff was extremely nice and there was free breakfast in their restaurant around the corner. Unfortunately, I couldn't find it! Hahaa! I looked twice!! Close to City Center. Food places all over. Will save as a Favorite. "
"We have stayed at the Plaza several times and have enjoyed it greatly every time. It is a beautiful hotel with excellent, attentive, friendly service. The rooms and hallways and the entire hotel is always clean and neat! This is luxury done right! "
