Berat, the "Town of thousand Windows", is an absolute must for every visitor of Albania. Situated in a scenic mountaneous landscape, with a steep rock and Albania's biggest castle on it, with a river crossing the old and completely preserved ex-Ottoman town, this charming town is one of the country's cultural centres. The peaceful coexistence of Muslims and Christians, with mosques and churches the one close to the other, will impress you. If you want to see how this religious freedom works, you should go to a medrese and watch children coming out from Koran lessons and then run to Orthodox church for further learning...
Mangalemi district is the old quarter of Berat, situated at the foot of huge Kastro Hill, with nice and steep narrow streets and genuine old balkan houses.
Mangalemi Hotel is a charming place, quite basic, but with an authentic style for those who want to experience the atmosphere of older times. The rooms are clean and cute, and there is a nice restaurant which works at the upper floor in summer.
