Discover Albania: strange laws, disgusting food, rare animals, weird traditions, what not to do, hidden gems, geography, beautiful nature and so much more!

However, in recent years the government has improved those issues, giving the country a new look and making it a must-visit location for tourists and other visitors.
In this video, we will shed light on all the fun things hidden in this beautiful but neglected European country. Get ready to learn all that you don’t know about Albania.

[@tunisiascolt2150]

I am from Tunisia, I visited Albania, a very beautiful country , serviable and nice people, contrary to what is being promoted, Albania is a very safe country and all the people there welcome the foreigner. The country is unfairly portrayed in the media as a dangerous monster, but it is quite the opposite . Much love to Albania and Albanian from Tunisia

This is what you get when 100’s of years of propaganda intruduset from slavic people to the world.. potraied uss like wild animals who would kill anybody, we sre just some few million who just mind our busnies.. If you had heard what they did sayd in yugoslavia days you would think we were some cold murders etc, i just want to say one things on then image what more they say «if you go lost never sleep in Albanian houses because they will kill you at the night, if you Get invited never go if you have no choise dont sleep be awak and prepered so they dont kill you at your sleep» How do i know it because and slavic stund of my fathers did tell him after he sleep at our house, he dident sleep all the night and then he told my father that he dident expet how well they treated him because of what he heard of our people, my family was in shock and told him Even then worst enemy if he is invited at our houses he will be like at his house Nothing will tuch him.. Even today at Serbian and Macedonian school children learn about how bad Albanian are that we are wild people, in year 2023 they still learn there children this at there school and europe dont say Nothing, if we did that the europe would make noise againts uss

before talking about a country, you should read the history, heroes, traditions, religion, culture, etc.. Albania is not a Muslim country, it is a secular country with 3 religious beliefs. Catholic, Orthodox and a part of Albanian-speaking Muslims from Turkey who stayed in the Albanian lands since the time of the Ottoman invaders. the majority of the population are not believers, it is the oldest country in Europe, with the oldest language and a people suffering like the Israeli people and maybe even worse because Albania has not fought a war for conquests, others have conquered and ruled by robbing land, history and so on. Serbia, Greece and Turkey are responsible for this, but the Albanians have survived and will survive as long as the sun and the earth exist/

[@albihadroviq179]

2- Albania doesn't have a border with serbia 10-Tirana had and stil has only one pyramid. And it was never known as the city of pyramids. 13- Albanian alphabet is 100% based on the latin alphabet unlike its neighbours who use the Cyrillic alphabet and the Greek alphabet. It has more letters because we combine two letters to express a different sound like d and dh or n and nj or s and sh. 16- the landmass of albania is 28,748 km2. There are gender pronouns in Albanian. Ai=He Ajo=she They (males) = Ata They (females) = Ato. Albania doesn't have an equivalent of it. 22- it is not a crime to whistle or sing loudly. we consider it just rude. 23-Actualy it is Albania, Kosovo. Bosnia and Turkey that are a majority muslim country in europe. (Yes Turkey is mostly in Asia but istambul is split between europe and Asia) 25-Just a clarification: The sworn virgins are called "Burrnesha". They change to mens clothes, cut their hair short, change their name to a male name, never marry, take the duties of males, and are treated and respected as man. And we adress them as He. 31-driving a dirty vehicle is not a crime. as for one in poor condition is a crime everywhere. But in Albania it is not enforced. 42- those who have cold hands are sincere according to our superstitions 66-the speedboat moratorium is over. 67-there are no siestas anywhere in albania. And if a shop closes it is only if the owner goes to eat lunch because often a shop owner stays in the shop form 7am to 10pm. maybe with a small lunch brake. 72-If you meet and albanian for more than 2 minutes the conversation will shift to politics and 100% of albanians will insult the president and the prime minister. half of them will insult the one in power and the other half will insult the one that was before. - Albania doesn't grow coffee, weed and tobacco are the best in europe. 96- 1 year without a visa is only for US citizens. All the others can stay up to 90 days without a visa. Great job with all the rest of the curiosities

[@ania.9116]

Yes, those corrections are all valid.

[@RasterivacMagle]

2- Albania have border with Serbia only not with so called Kosovo! Kosovo & Metohija are not recognized as independent country. Its Serbian territory under UN protection. Thats say UN resolution 1244 (which is still valid, and it's not replaced or cancelled), also Kosovo & Metohija is not member of any international political organization and it's recognized by less than half of the world.

[@albihadroviq179]

@Rasterivač Magle Realy??? So let's say that Kosovo is already recognised by the ones that matter: THE PEOPLE OF KOSOVO. So you keep dreaming Slopodan Milosevic return to power but it will not happen. Kosovo was a country long before your hordes came to the balkans in the 7-8 century and 13-14 century. It was called Dardania. Why don't you ask yourself why the slaves are called jipsy all around Europe? Slavic people are not Romani or Jipsy. It's because you used to live the same exact way like jipsy. Nomadic people wondering the world and decided to settle in the Balkans. Now you who have no rights live in these lands tell us Autoctonos that we have no Country????? You Serbs are the desease of the Balkans. You infected the Croats, those proud Ilyrian tribe called Dalmatian, and you changed their language but couldn't delete the history. You infected the Macedonians and changed their language but could delete their history. You tried to do the same with the Albanians of kosovo and also tried a few times to cross to our land as well. But this time you failed.

This video has so many things wrong. 0:57 is the wrong spelling. It is spelt shqiptarët. 1:04 this is the wrong pronunciation. It is pronounced as (Shpuhreea). 1:52 the letter "xh" is pronounced like the english "J". So you basically proncounce his last name as "hoja". 2:21 the letter "q" is pronounced as "ch" and it is the wrong spelling. It is spelled like this "kokë qingji ". 2:49 I don't know but those letters look Latin based to me. 2:52 that is completely wrong. There are masculine and feminine nouns and there words that change. For instance for boyfriend it's "i dashur" and for girlfriends it's "e dashur". Also the verbs also change. "yt" for men/boys and "jote" for women/girls. 4:43 while Albania is majority Muslim, so is Bosnia. 5:27 well those are dialects of the Albanian language. 7:21 the letter "e" in Albanian is pronounced as "eh" or the same way you pronounce the "e" in the word "bed". And it doesn't change 7:39 wrong pronunciation and spelling. It is spelled "Xhiro" and it pronounced as "jeero" 8:42 again the letter "xh" is pronounced as a "j" 9:00 that is also incorrect. The Letter "c" is pronounced as "ts" as in tsunami. However there is a letter "ç" which is pronounced as "ch". I see you understand that the letter "xh" is pronounced as "J" yet you have mispronounced this letter throughout this video. 9:16 again, you pronounce the "e" the same way you pronounce the letter e in the word "bed" 9:30 the letter "ë" at the end of words is silent. 10:27 wrong pronunciation. the letter y has a strange pronunciation, you would pronounce it like the "u" in french and German. 10:35 again, the wrong pronunciation of "e" 11:47 wrong spelling and pronunciation. It is spelled as "Gjakmarrja" and the letter "j" is pronounced the same way you pronounce the letter "y" in english. 12:48 it is spelled "Gjirokastër" 13:07 wrong spelling and pronunciation. It is spelled "fier" and it pronounced as "fee-ehr" 13:21 wrong spelling and pronunciation. It is spelled "Skopje" and it's pronounced as "skopeejeh" 14:21 the "i" in Albanian is pronounced as "ee" 17:50 that is true if you are an american. it is different for other countries.

[@all-about-europe]

You are welcome!

learned alot. Thanx.

[@all-about-europe]

Glad to hear that! :)

Only 10 % of what is said here is true, our country is very beautiful and has developed a lot, Albanians are wonderful people and whoever visit our beautiful country finds it difficult to leave, most of what is said here does not belong to our beautiful Albania, the author of this video must look what others say about our country before giving wrong view of Albania, we’re very proud of our beautiful Albania 🇦🇱 !

[@all-about-europe]

Thanks for your feedback, we are improving this. Your country is beautiful!

Iceland also has the sheep's head as a delicacy.

[@besnikillyrian8520]

Its moslty like an old habit . Crnturies ago when a sheep got consumed entirely except leather , bones and hoofs

[@GlobalExplorers365]

Albania's quirks are intriguing! Who knew about those strange laws and unique traditions? Thanks for the eye-opening tour!

[@VerseKiller326]

The only thing was missing was prices for , food rent, price for house to buy, the threes planting for the babies was awesome, most of the content was very interesting !!!

[@all-about-europe]

Thanks for your suggestion. Glad you liked the video! 😊

[@albihadroviq179]

Actually During the Reign of Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg, If a couple wanted to get married the groom had to plant at least 10 olive trees. If you take the old road from Fier to Vlora (not the highway), near the entrance to city of Vlora, you will see hills full of 600 year old olive trees and we call them "Ullite e Skenderbeut" meaning "The olives of Skanderbeg" because of the law that he made in 1446, albania is full of these olive trees and they still produce olive once every two years.

[@dondardha1993]

Most of the facts are wrong though😂 besides that,is very safe to tourists

[@GegTosk]

Is ok it's not very expensive and depends which city you want living. But in general is cheap thanks 🇦🇱🇽🇰♥️

[@ArditSr]

Some facts are wrong, or exaggerated for dramatic effect I guess, but most are actually true! Made me laugh, nice video

[@all-about-europe]

I enjoyed all, this is a great video, I know some people from Albania, maybe my favorite is the food, I will try one of their dishes now

[@pirrossotiris7790]

Too many inaccuracies! You are covering Albania with a veil of fog I don't now if you are doing it on purpose or out of ignorance!?

Glad you think so!

[@plonss]

Well thanks to videos like this Albania is not anymore "overlooked". I was recently - again - in Albania and was shocked by the number of tourists. The country is basically flooded with tourists .....

[@Z.M.-br9tb]

So many mistakes in one video, lol. Even though i appreciate the fact that someone tried to make this video to get people to know more about Albania, i must specifie that there are so many inconstencies, such as for example we do have gender in our language actually there the names can be feminine, masculine or neutral. Also its not a crime to drive an old car, its not a crime by no means to whistle and sing in public, Albanians are known for showing their feeling both through songs and melody. Frogs are not a common food, its mostly reserved to foreigners, most people would never dare try eating a frog. We are nomally muslym majority, but most people are really agnostic and do not really care what religion or if you practise a religion at all. The area is almost 29,000 km square, etc. Despite all that, we appreciate having taken the time to compile this video and we thank you!

[@all-about-europe]

Thanks for your corrections and the time you put into writing this. Im happy to hear that you still enjoyed the video :)

[@orkidofegaj]

the nodding thing is wrong

[@all-about-europe]

Very odd as various sources state that it is true that's why we included it

[@user-is1pg6nd1j]

excellent

[@all-about-europe]

Thank you!

Thanks brother for this nice video and for sharing the beautiful Albania 🇦🇱♥️

You are welcome bro❤️

Thanks, All About Europe.

[@all-about-europe]

you are welcome!

[@sanoman1a67]

As an Albanian the shaking of the head meaning yes and noding meaning no, i can confirm that this is false, no one that i have ever known has done this

[@all-about-europe]

That's odd as I found many articles about it on the internet

[@munzekonzarupe]

Rita Ora is Albanian but from Kosovo. Her surname was changed when her parents emigrate to UK. Original surname was Sahatçiu.

[@all-about-europe]

Really? That's something completely different than her artist name haha

[@munzekonzarupe]

@@all-about-europe No it's english "translation" bcs for any Englishman or a woman it's very hard to pronuonce it. Ora - from Latin for hour, Sahat - turkish for hour so it's obviously the same. That suffix "çiu" should be for someone who is dealing with clocks or watches like Clockmaker or Watchmaker.

[@azizkozmaqi9395]

@@munzekonzarupeI would rather say Sahatçiu. means Clock or watch repairman or mechanic.

[@munzekonzarupe]

@@azizkozmaqi9395 Yes you are right but from the modern point of view. You should consider that in the time when surnames were created craftsmen dealing with clocks or watches were also the ones who were making them and not only repairing. Even though in the modern times craftsmen are schooled to know how to make and how to repair clocks or watches. Some of them are employed in the watch making industry and some open a shop in which they are only repairing the watches. But all of them are called clock makers or watch makers and in the same way you have shoe makers and Shoemaker or Schumacher surname derived from the name for the craft.

I was so wrong i though she was from carabean decent😵‍💫

beautiful country. show!

I love Albania from Kosova and the Netherlands i wish we unite one day 🇽🇰🇦🇱🇳🇱

[@reyrey2468]

thank you very much for making this video and showing the world about albania.but you have forgot a fact that in albania catolics ,myslims,ortgodox live together,the original religion was chatolic after turkey try to invade us some people changed their relegions to muslims and they became traitors.but when it comes to relegion in albania dont exist any a wise man(poet) said the Albanian relegion is only albanian.

[@all-about-europe]

You are welcome, thanks for letting me know

[@jacktran7024]

James Belushi is a famous Albanian.

[@all-about-europe]

Indeed. There are so many other amazing facts we couldn't include in just one video. We might make a second one later

[@wilfredvanvalkenburgh2874]

His brother, John Belushi was too! Both much loved comedians/philosophers. As an American, I have learned a lot from them.

[@besnikillyrian8520]

Some others are italians but albanian heritage

[@pariaheep]

I learned a lot! Just a question... : on one side we're told the country produces a lot of weed, but the images show police cars, as if this production is illegal? Beautiful country, beautiful cities, beautiful parks! For somebody who loves archeology, Albania has a lot to offer!

[@all-about-europe]

Thanks for your comment. Our editor thought it made sense as it is in some countries. It is indeed a beautiful country!

[@johannjohann6523]

What a beautiful creature the Balkan Lynx. I hope it is protected and no longer hunted as I am sure its natural habitat is limited in today's world, and its continued existence precarious at best.

[@IAm-NotHear]

Only those with passports from the US are allowed to stay for a year. Most countries are allowed to stay 90 days. While some even less.

[@all-about-europe]

Thanks for your advice

[@uvilgrand4984]

In albanian language there are genders as ai = he and ajo = she so be a little sure before spreading fake news

[@epic6434]

I heard the situation and Stalin seemed like he was a better Albanian than Russian that was a surprise but I honestly think you're strong for going through the process and stood your ground they had to accept you as you are great story.

[@tanyacharbury4728]

I found the Mercedes-Benz aspect fascinating.
