I WILL NEVER FORGET THIS ALBANIAN CITY

Gjirokaster is a city in Albania that will absolutely steal your heart. I was not prepared for the incredible beauty that is hidden in this city. From it's traditional homes scattered on the mountainside, the idealic streets of it's UNESCO Old Town and its absolutely stunning fortress rising high above the city, Gjirokaster is a destination you will never forget. I hope you guys will enjoy this city guide alongside some beautiful drone shots! Make sure you don't miss it! xx

Enver Hoxha was from Gjirokastĕr as well the most evil man of Eastern Europe. He killed everybody suspected a threat to his rule. No one was spared including his brother in Law and his friends. Gjirokastĕr is one of the most important towns of albanian nationalism

The city appeared for the first time in historical records under its medieval Greek name of Argyrocastron (Greek: Αργυρόκαστρον), as mentioned by John VI Kantakouzenos in 1336. The name comes from the Medieval Greek ἀργυρόν (argyron), meaning "silver", and κάστρον (kastron), derived from the Latin castrum, meaning "castle" or "fortress"; thus "silver castle". Byzantine chronicles also used the similar name Argyropolyhni, meaning silvertown. The definite Albanian form of the name of city is Gjirokastra, of which derives from the Greek name. (WIKIPEDIA).

[@polopolo3704]

I have one other option for to explained dhe etymology about the name Gjirokastër. Aργυρο(Ancient Greek)- Aσήμι(Today Greek)-No etymology from greek language. Argjënd(Alb)- gold white - etymology from albania language means ar(gold) + gjiri i gruas që nxjer qumësht të bardhë(the breast of the woman who produces white milk). This is also supported by the legend of the Gjirokastra castle. Thank you Alina.

Excellent filming, narrative and editing; as always but your choice of music accompaniment was Perfect here, Alina....loved the music with this video and it enhanced the whole experience of watching because you edited the picture montage with such sublime, magical music....
