Bunk'Art 1
Bunk Art 1 is the best and most innovative museum in Tirana. The museum is located inside a massive communist bunker.
From 1945 to 1992, Albania was ruled by a communist dictator called Enver Hoxha. He constructed 750.000 bunkers in Albania, because he was paranoid and afraid of a foreign nuclear attack on the country. The foreign attack never happened, and the communism regime ended in 1992. But Albania still has thousands of unused bunkers.
The massive bunker, which accommodates Bunk Art 1, was intended to accommodate the communist dictator and his government if a foreign attack took place. It is a five-story underground bunker complex with over 100 rooms and a multitude of hallways. But it was never used.
Nowadays, the bunker has been converted into a very interesting museum about Albania's history. You can listen to Enver Hoxha on the phone, see old TV footage, learn about nuclear weapons and see the dictator's room. You get a unique insight into the dark year under the communist rule in Albania. Simply said, Bunk Art 1 is the most impressive museum in Albania, but it is also a little creepy...

Dajti Ekspres
The Dajti Express is an Austrian built cable car in the outskirts of Tirana. You board the cable car at the lower station. The journey to the upper station of the Dajti Express takes around 15 minutes and it is breathtaking. You fly across the tree tops, by the mountain cliffs and you can see the little farm houses below. Once you get closer to the top, you will see a view of Tirana city in the distance and the Adriatic Sea at the horizon.

Mount Dajti
The upper station of the Dajti Cable Car is 1613 meters above sea level. The view from the upper balcony is impressive. You can see the entire city of Tirana, the Adriatic Sea and the Port of Durres. Albania is a very mountainous country, so you will see various hills and valleys in the distance.
At the top of the cliff, there is the Balcony Restaurant which has floor to ceiling windows and it is the perfect spot for lunch (own expense). You can also go on top of the Dajti Tower Hotel and step out on the viewing terrace or go to the the rotating bar.
At the upper station, you can try your hand at various outdoor activities. There is a little shooting range, mini golf, an outdoor fitness area, horse riding, various playgrounds and a children's adventure park. The Dajti Mini Golf and Adventure park has a high robes course and zip lining facilities, this is optional and the fees are not included.
