Tirana National Park
 

Tirana National Park is an expansive area of natural beauty located just outside the bustling capital of Albania.

Ecologically, the park is a habitat for a variety of wildlife, including several bird species, foxes, and other small mammals, providing perfect spots for bird watching and wildlife photography. Historically, the area served as a retreat for urban residents seeking tranquility away from city life.
