\u201cFrom a Finnish archipelago to a tranquil lake in Albania, our tipsters have unearthed beautiful beaches, lively cities and wild, atmospheric places,\u201d writes The Guardian, ranking Albania among the eight most favorite travel discoveries of their readers in 2023.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur summer 2023 trip took us on a tour of Albania. We loved Tirana and its lively drivers, Berat bewitched us, historical Gjirokast\u00ebr entranced us and we chilled out by the beach in Himar\u00eb. But it was tiny Lin in the Kor\u00e7\u00eb region, eastern Albania, perhaps the oldest inhabited settlement in Europe, dating back to 6,000 BC, that totally captured our hearts. Our accommodation on the shores of Lake Ohrid offered amazing views across to North Macedonia. Delicious homecooked meals, including the tasty local Ohrid brown trout caught by the owner, were served on the terrace overlooking the lake where we were serenaded by a noisy frog chorus,\u201d writes Lisa J.<\/p>\n

The list includes destinations such as:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Tove Jansson\u2019s island, Finland<\/li>\n
  2. Lake Ohrid, Albania<\/li>\n
  3. Wroc\u0142aw, Poland<\/li>\n
  4. Tbilisi, Georgia<\/li>\n
  5. Galicia, Spain<\/li>\n
  6. Volos, Greece<\/li>\n
  7. Essaouira, Marocco<\/li>\n
  8. Lake District, UK<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
