Travel tip to Albania - a visit to historical Kruj Travel tip to Albania - a visit to historical Kruja! This town, especially the old fortress of it, the Kalaja e Krujë, played an important role in medieval history of Albania. The Castle of Kruja was the center of Skanderbeg's rebellion against the Ottoman Empire in the 15th century.Kruja Fortress has become a popular tourism destination, and for a reason – it's a beautifully restaured castle with museums, a mosque, an old watchtower, a Turkish bath, several restaurants, hotels and guesthouses. Furthermore, there are picturesque alleys and stunning views all the way to the Adriatic Sea and over Tirana.Below the fortress itself is the Old Town of Kruja, with a famous bazaar area. A walk along the narrow, cobbled bazaar street lined with small shops selling colourful carpets, handicrafts antiques and ceramics is like a jump back in time.#finnsaway #nomadlife #travelforlife #travelinspiration #visitalbania #krujacastle

The UNESCO-listed Kronborg castle in Helsingør, De The UNESCO-listed Kronborg castle in Helsingør, Denmark is one of the most important Renaissance castles in Northern Europe.  It was immortalised as Elsinore in William Shakespeare's play Hamlet, and is a very popular tourism destination in this old coastal city.The castle's history dates back to a stronghold, Krogen, built by King Eric VII in the 1420s. Along with the fortress Kärnan in Helsingborg, on the opposite coast of Øresund, it controlled the entrance to the Baltic Sea. From 1574 to 1585, King Frederick II had the medieval fortress radically transformed into a magnificent Renaissance castle.Hamlet was first staged at Kronborg in 1816, in commemoration of the 200th anniversary of Shakespeare's death.Sunday reel 33 / 2025#finnsaway #nomadlife #digitalnomads #travelforlife #nomadiclife #instatravel #travelinspiration #kronborgcastle #visitdenmark
