This is Tirana with the volume turned up. Not the postcard tour. Not the clean museum version. This is the story of a city that went from dictatorship to distortion.

On this tour, you will visit places like the Pyramid, Blloku, and the Polytechnic University as stages, scars, and secret meeting points.
