Durres

I went to Durres, the port closest to Tirana, for the first time this weekend...


Castle walls in Durres Town


The main street in Durres Town, with the mosque at the far end


Random Roman columns in the middle of the
sidewalk. Also, the town Christmas tree in the background.


I managed to take this picture from the worst possible angle as we drove by. It's a giant wooden horse, on the road between Durres Town and Durres Beach.

Hi James. The wooden horse is the entrance to a very nice restaurant called Troy. Good seafood and Czech beer - highly recommended

Sounds good....I'll check it out if I go back this weekend. We had dinner at a place called Xixa (on Golem beach) that was also really great.
