Undoubtedly it can be called the biggest tourist attraction in Albania, both for foreigners and for us.
Kruja has the premises to be magnificent at all times. It was capital in one of the most glorious periods in the history of Albanians, in the period of the National Hero, Skanderbeg. It was area known since Illyrian antiquity. On its outskirts, just before reaching Kruja, are the ruins of Albanopolis, Illyrian city, by which comes from the name Albanians. With this history and the archeological objects that reflect it, the castle, the museum, the characteristic bazaar, the ruins of Albanopolis and the monument of Skanderbeg, etc., Kruja is in the interest of all Albanians, especially foreign tourists.
In addition to historical values the position of Kruja, the environment, the mountain, the hills, the fields, the sea create a wonderful panorama to look at, why not to live.

The view to be displayed from Kruja, in clear weather, especially at night, in the light of the moon and stars, it is impressive. You can see the wide field, you can see Rinas airport, the castle of Preza, that of Petrela and that of Lezha.
