Tirana Shopping
Shopping in Tirana
Pazari i Ri for food and produce, plus crafts and souvenirs in the streets around the centre.
Shopping in Tirana starts at the market. Pazari i Ri is the one worth walking: a rebuilt produce market northeast of Skanderbeg Square selling mountain honey, cheese, olive oil, dried herbs and raki, ringed by bakeries and grill counters.
Souvenirs and crafts sit in the streets around the square and the boulevard, with more of the traditional material, filigree silver, wool and carved wood, sold up at Kruja's castle bazaar half an hour north. Bakeries are everywhere and are a category of their own here.
