We visited Nurellari for one day where we both had the wine tasting, the dinner and stayed for one night. The house itself is amazing and one of the most beautiful houses we’ve seen on our trip around Albania. The room was great and again one of the best rooms we stayed in during our trip Fatos was really friendly and had a lot to tell about their history. The wines we tasted were really good, especially one of their white wines and their red wine montemeca, but it was a shame most of the red wines were sold out, even though that must have been a good sign ;). All in all it was a very good experience and we can only recommend others to stop by and see their place and taste the wine

The museum is a good option to get some historic information about Berat. The infos are available in many different languages and it's also a nice option to escape the hot hours during the summer days in Berat :)

7. Quarter Of Gorica
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By B1714D - Belgrade, Serbia
Berat is a fascinating medieval town in central Albania. Beneath the commanding hilltop fortress lies the old town divided by the Osumi river into two neighborhoods - Gorica and Mangalem. Mangalem is the part right beneath the fortress and is predominantly Muslim, while across the river is predominantly an Orthodox quarter of Gorica. Both communities live in harmony and peace. During the Ottoman era, those not willing to embrace Islam, had to pay higher taxes to retain their religion. Both neighborhoods are fantastic to explore with unique architecture - houses so close one to another, set on an elevated terrain one window above the another, hence the city's nickname "town of 1000 windows".

The castle and its fortified village, to be visited absolutely. Breathtaking views. A bit difficult to get to the fortified village because the road is very steep
9. Bulevardi Republika

Here you can see the locals hanging out with their entire family plus their relatives. You'll also see vendors selling sunflower seeds, sour plums, popcorn and other snacks. It reminded me of my hometown in Iraqi Kurdistan.
10. Gorica Bridge
Overall Ratings

Reviewed By jenedc2016 - Santa Rosa, United States
This is a nice bridge connecting the old parts of the Berat across the river. The bridge itself is fine - fairly attractive and interesting. What sets it apart and makes it a must-see site is the views up and down the gorge of the river and across the facade of Berat - a strikingly beautiful site. I highly recommend walking out onto the bridge and spending some time taking in the scenery in every direction.
