At Albania My Way we pay attention to the local flavors which makes our country unique and are committed to making our guest feel those characteristics. Today you are going to visit Vlora, one of the most beautiful towns in Albania blessed with Adriatic and the Ionian Sea. The first visit will be at Zvërnec, Narta lagoon.

The monastery was built during the 13 century and is dedicated to Mary. During communism time was used for military purposes, hence its beautiful frescos are deteriorated and in need of immediate restoration.
