Gjirokastra, The Castle (Albania)
Gjirokastra (Gjirokaster) is a charming place. Distinctly divided into much older and much newer areas, and with this impressive castle dominating everything, the card gives you a good idea of how it feels to be there. The castle, by the way, is far from a “relic,” with music festivals and a captured US “spy plane”, and who-knows-what else. Unused Arba card 781. Grade: 1
