WOW!! A great showing of the castle. I hope you took your time climbing that hills, and the video was superb. Had a little wind problem, but as always you made another successful visit possible for us to see. Of course, I never get tired of your shares of the great food places you seem to always find. You are opening so many great places to visit with you, wonderful video, Alina!! Stay safe and looking forward for more. Cheers!!
Berat is amazing😍yes,you are right,religious tollerance in Albania is the most beautiful thing. Every religious holiday is a national holiday and there are a lot of mixed families.They never identified the country with 1 religion,but with the language/culture. You can find many mosques and churches in the same garden✝️☪️☦❤🇦🇱
it should be the same throughout the world. afterall they are not different religions. Judaism, Christianity and Islam are all the religions of the same God only different prophets i.e, Moses, Jesus and Mohamed. they all believe in one devine God, day of judgment, afterlife, prayer buildings(synagogue, church, mosque), prayers, adam n eve, holy books, angels n demons and the list is countless. then why do they all look and seem so different? u might ask u think if the God was the same, he would change the whole religion with every new prophet? its when the prophets die or get resurrected, the elders(rabbi, pastors, mullahs) distort the religion for their own advantage. its the same religion, the Religion of One God. just molded in different shapes by men in power
@@sarimasrar We Albanians have ancient codes that predate religion .Besa and Kanun is our real belief . Especially in the north . Religion was something forced on us from outsiders...
@Bes Besa yes it used to be. Thank God its mostly a religious country now. And is besa more ancient than the creation of earth and the universe itself!
@@sarimasrar We have been in this region many thousands years before the birth of any religion. For some people it may be difficult to comprehend this and that's fine but for us Albanians religions are the least importance. Our ancient culture, traditions and brother & sister hood are more important.
One of the most professional beautiful clean amazing video ever over city of Berat. What you showed us even the ministry of tourism could not do ever. Just Thank you darling
Wow. Thank you so much. I recently drove from Sarande to Tirana and got to see Gjirokaster but missed this little gem. Thank you for the content, safe travels :-)
Another great video Alina, enjoyable to take a walk around with you. I was lucky enough to visit Berat during my trip to Albania and I loved it as much as you do. When I headed up to the castle I thought I would find a few ruins and some kind of restored structure, I was amazed to see just how large the site is and that people still lived up there - which I thought was really cool. It was like travelling back in time! Anyhow, enjoy the rest of your trip and keep the videos coming!!
Another video I'm very happy to have watched. I'm coming to Albania in a week for a stay of several months, so such good videos are important to me. Thanks.
Hallo Alina. Such a wonderful video of Berat. The castle was spectacular and the panoramic views were breathtaking. As someone else commented the music was magnifico and was perfect for this. Cheers! Can't imagine what other treasures await you. Thanks for sharing as always. You are the best.
Another wonderful video with excellent camerawork+droneshots and insightful narration 💯 Beart truly deserves recognition for its beautiful traditonal houses, marvelous stone castle and peaceful atmosphere overall. This city and Albania overall is definitely on my bucket list 🇦🇱
The beauty of history surrounded by nature! So cool, serene & peaceful beauty! A restless mind will become cool & calm! Hats off to you Alina for selecting such a wonderful place & showing us its vivid pictures! Once again Alina, thank you very much!
I go to Berat every time I visit Albania. There are so many beautiful towns there that you would need to stay for a few months to see most of them. Another great one is Gjirokastra.
Haha: "Hotel Colombo": must be named to "Inspector Colombo" aka actor Peter Falk. He once played a serie in "Albania", using his Peugeot 403 Cabriolet, one of the most famous issues of the series.
Your pronunciation of Albania is actually extremely good especially for a person who did speak our language before, i hope you're enjoying your vacations in Albania
Alina, beautiful peaceful lovely city in Albania 🇦🇱 in love with your live streams videos . Great channel👌👏 Thanks for sharing! My love from TEXAS. USA 🇺🇸
Alina, Yesterday I slept watching your video. I watched only half of the video and slept.Morning my phone is one side of the bed and my specs another side. Berat is a classical city. l love it's architecture and it is very calm. No hustle. Really I enjoyed this video also.
@@GenosGlory I canceled Because of the Rain, It's been raining steady for two weeks now, the streets are flooded, will visit when I see a nice weekend on the Radar.
I admire you a lot.Thank you for visiting my country.Im very pleased that you like your travel.I hope you enjoy our place it's very nice to hear such a good a words.
@@klevis48 Okay, I saw a Byzantine Church, which at one point was Roman and Illyria was part of both Rome and Greece at different points in history and I find your nitpickiness totally unnecessary and meanspirited.
@@JerryGerold Yeahh ok one point was Greek and Roman. But Greeks and Roman’s when they come they find people’s there. And people’s who live in Berat thousands years they was Pagan they was thinking that their god was Father Tomorri witch is the Biggest mountain in Berat. Just to explain you . And unnecessary is not Sir cause we need to learn the history like she is . Nothing personal with you
@@JerryGerold Albania has never been part of greece maybe is the opposite if you look at the history of our countries and the east Roman empire( Byzantine) was a multi-ethnic empire it was not an empire belonging to a specific people... and Albania has been part of that empire since the first day of its creation without forgetting that the emperor Constantine was of Illyrian origin from Dardania.. btw I think you are confusing the ethnicity with the religion the Albanians were Christians even before the Romans lool
🙂 Hi Alina. Yet another nice vlog by you. Nice place and a very nice presentation by you. 🤔 Don't know why but I somehow feel I have seen this video before. Anyways, amazing place. Wishing you a very happy, healthy, safe and a prosperous new year 😀🌷
Great video by Alina with her impeccable enunciation and perfect beauty. I appreciate the recommendations on accommodation and restaurants because I will be there in ten days.
@@sak594 This is the Ancient history that I was talking about. Berat Castle Originally an Illyrian fortress, built circa 300BCE, Berat Castle was destroyed by the Romans in 200BCE, then rebuilt by Byzantine Emperor Theodosius II in 400CE, and added to in 500CE by Emperor Justinian.
Elegant music (guitar and piano)! Makes it feel like the past is somehow a lost love .... That is a complex castle! Rock and stone is cold and dead, but your smile and excitement make it feel more alive - wouldn’t want to live there without real live flesh and bone humanity present, especially the feminine kind! I visualize men and women wearing the traditional medieval clothing and hair styles, walking about on the grounds and riding on horses (just be careful where you step). We could romanticize that time, but still it was a harder life - guess that is part of the curiosity. Thank you for being a beautiful person, Alina, for softening the view, so to say. Hope you had a romantic time in that city over the holidays, and best wishes for this new year! ❤️
A little correction on the name. Berat is the ancient city of Partha (present day albanian Bardha so "white city"). The white castle has been the symbol of the city for centuries and the present name Berat basically just means 'white over black' so the white castle over the black hills. When the city was invaded by Bulgaria temporarily, the name Beligrad was used basically as a translation to slavic for their reference to white city because of the castle. They didn't name or rename the city, it was just a name for them to reference to. A present day example would be you going home to Canada and telling people you went to "the white city". You're not going to tell them you went to "qyteti i bardhe" which is the same exact name in the native language.
Oh. I am so glad to see this video Alina as I am going to Berat on Saturday. I am loving all of your Albania videos as I am also travelling around the country vlogging like you. Great work!
Hello Alina! 😄🙏👋👍🌟 I hope your having a wonderful beautiful marvelous blessed day! This is absolutely a super amazing impressive masterpiece video! Berat is really a beautiful super excellent city. Berat has absolutely magnificent ancient and modern architecture. It’s so fantastic to see. Berat Castle looks so wonderful incredible! It’s amazing it’s still standing for all these years. The view from the top of the castle is gorgeously stunning! Truly wonderful landscapes. The mountains ⛰ with a glance of sunshine looks so beautiful. 😯 The restaurant looks wonderful inside and the view is great. Also the food looks really delicious! 😁👍🇦🇱👏 Thank you so much Alina to share with us your wonderful terrific spectacular travel adventures around the world.

I wish you all the very best. 😊🙏❤️👋👍🌟
Another good one. Unique destinations. Nice pace, format and music. Restaurants and food pix ending with nighttime view complete our day. Worth the effort to go back uphill at night for us.
Alina - It’s always fantastic to visit a UNESCO World Heritage Site! The unique style of architecture in Berat captures cultural and historical influences from diverse civilizations of the ancient and more recent past. Berat Castle is impressive, with captivating scenic views of the Osum River and valley below. Thanks for sharing the beauty of Berat with us, Alina!
Please go to korçë they have a huge church and beautiful Christmas lights and it’s where their is the most orthodox. Also go to vlorë and to sazan island it’s so beautiful
Superb, Alina. I´am sure, there are just a few people out there who know about this place. And when they plan the time for 2021 they need ideas. Weather looks like fresh, but nice. Good work, well done.
That phenomenal room for only Cdn $70 a night?? That's a bargain!! The free breakfast was one heck of a bonus too. Alina's and Bald and Bankdrupt's channels are my favourite travel RU-vidrs. I really like when they release a new video and today was a lucky day because there was new stuff from both of them.
@@ermirdestani It's a bargain. In May 2019 in Switzerland I paid an average of $190 for standard rooms, no breakfast and not nearly as big a room. I'd love to pay $70 a night for all she got. In Austria and Germany, the rooms were less expensive than in Switzerland but always more than $130 a night. Western Europe is a rip off, I have to say. But $70 is fair for all they offered.
@@timsummers870 i understand you but belive me as an Albanoan i sleept in Berat for 5 eur in tradicional houses, very beatiful. A good hotel there will not kost more than 40 eur a night. For exsample I can find you a good hotel for 50 eur night in Tirana (the capital) city center. I told this just to make a compare btw two cities.
Amazing, just amazing, Alina i say for sure this is the best guide and videos i have seen for Berat. I have seen many many but the way you treat everything, from history to culture was amazing. *Mangalem was not muslim neighborhood, both Mangalem and Gorica have been always totally Christian, while Muslims have inhabited in neighborhoods around. But of course now all have changed and people have moved in both sides while we don't see ourselves as christian or muslims, in medieval times it was more important but now no one cares about such things. Greetings and have a nice trip 😘
Beautiful place, with a beautiful lady visiting it. Just a little correction Berat was known by other communities as “Rumelian Belgrade” by Venetians, Belgradi Arnavud (Albanian white city) because Beligrad means (white city in south Slavic language) It has a different meaning in the Albanian language and has nothing to do with white or city!
I think Belgrad is actually Beograd which sounds closer to Berat. I never knew about the origin of the name Berat though. I really love the effort you've been making to showcase this country that I fell in love with years ago. Your videos have been lovely and even your pronunciation has been pretty good. Të lumtë goja edhe kalofsh shumë bukur atje!
If those ancient walls could talk, they'd tell you amazing stories throughout history. So ancient, yet so fascinating. Hopefully, I can visit the place someday.
My wife wants to go to Ireland to go through all the castles. It seems that Albania has as many or more castles than Ireland and they all seem older than Ireland's castles. Have shown her one video tonight and she thought it was wonderful but she is on an "Oak Island" Roll on HuLu. According to my phone I can play You Tube videos on our big screen TV but this would interupt her "Oak Island" videos based in Nova Scotia which is someplace that we would both like to visit along with Labrador and New Brunswick. Its along trip by car and I am not retired. Albania and/or Bulgaria sounds possible doable too but not now.
I visited 2 years ago. I knew nothing about Albania and deliberately didn't do any research. Just go and see. I was really surprised, great 2 weeks. I am 'Taken' by Albania.
Yet another fantastic video, so wish I could travel properly again right now but LockDown is upon us again so for now I will have to see the world you bring to us. Safe travels 🙏
