My day in Krujë started with a traditional Albanian breakfast served on the ruins of an old castle overlooking miles of beautiful countryside and the impressive Krujë Mountain. This has to be the cheapest hotel room I've ever stayed in so after a quick room tour at the Hotel Rooms Emiliano I check out and head across to the Skanderbeg Museum and castle complex. Exploring the old passageways, well weathered defensive walls and an old Otterman Mosque was truly fascinating and a great way to spend a few hours.

After lunch I headed down to the Old Bazaar to pick up a few bargains, meet some local shop owners and rummage through various stalls and markets in search of that life-transforming antique that everybody else has just passed by - needless to say I didn't find it but I did enjoy my afternoon in the old narrow streets of Krujë.
