Shkodër Old Town
Rruga Kolë Idromeno
An old town centered on Kolë Idromeno pedestrian street, with colourful Austrian-style buildings and the Marubi National Museum of Photography.
Shkodër is the gateway city to Theth, and its old town centers on Kolë Idromeno pedestrian street. Lining both sides are restored 19th-century colourful buildings and cafés. The Marubi National Museum of Photography on the street displays some of Albania's earliest photographs, documenting the lives of mountain people in the north. Many people ride bicycles in town, and you can rent one to ride to the shores of Lake Shkodra. Minibuses to Theth usually leave from the city center early in the morning, and the journey takes about 2 hours.
