"Long Red and Black Weekend" in the southeast of the country, more visitors than years

The southeast of the country, fully dressed in winter clothing, is one of the destinations of Albanians, but not only during the long weekend that precedes the November holidays.

In the city of Korça, it is not difficult to find visitors from central Albania.

" From Tirana and it was just a wish of friends. We were all here together. "

" From Tirana. For holidays to spend a weekend. Price-quality ratio, Korça is perfect. "

But in the small Albanian Paris, you also find foreigners who have learned to speak Albanian and enjoy Korca for the first time in winter.

" I came today, a few hours ago and it's the first time I'm coming in the winter, because it rained another time, in another season. Very beautiful, despite the fact that it is cold. I especially liked this Old Market and the center of Korça very much. "

Hostel administrators talk about a higher flow of Albanian visitors compared to the same period last year.

" I can say that the 27th and 28th are all reserved. Bookings are mainly from Central Albania, Tirana mainly. Reservations are generally made two or three weeks in advance. "

Those who are passionate about snow or skiing have gone to the tourist village of Darda, where according to them, the amount of snow is fixed to enjoy it.

" We come from Tirana, it is not the first time we come to Dardhë, but we are enjoying it. "

While for Italians, the magic of Dardha makes them speak Albanian.

" I come from Milan. Very nice pear, very nice. "

Over 90% of the hotels in the city of Korça are reserved for national holidays, while the cities of Pogradec and Kolonje also have an increase in visitors. (A2 Televizion)
