Elbasan has started a big project to help tourism and protect the city’s cultural heritage. One of the newest places in the city’s tourist guide is Mengli Castle, an old military building from the Byzantine period.

It was built to control the Egnatia road, an important road to the Balkan history. Because of its position, the castle is very important for the history and tourism of the city.

Elbasan has created the Tourism and Culture Agency, which will help develop tourist places and protect the city’s history. Mengli Castle is now one of the newest places for tourists to visit.

A project has started to clean and fix the area around the castle to make it easier for tourists to visit. The castle is only 25 minutes from the main road, so it is easy to get to and explore.

The castle has a special shape with eight towers. This design is from the Byzantine time and was important for controlling the Egnatia road. The castle is on a hill, so visitors can enjoy a beautiful view of the Shkumbin River and the nearby hills.

There are also other tourist places in the city, like the Field Castle to make the tourist guide of Elbasan even better and attract more visitors.

Mengli Castle is a special place where people can learn about the history and natural beauty of Elbasan. With the help of the Tourism and Culture Agency, this historical site will be an important place for tourism and for protecting the city’s culture.

Visit Mengli Castle and see the beauty of Elbasan!
