ALBANIA: Kalaja Lezhes

After our adventure climbing (or, trying to climb) the mountain of sand over in Rana e Hedhun, we went over to tour the Kalaja (castle/fortress) in Lezha,

This fortress dates to Illyrian times, later underwent changes after Roman, Venetian, and Ottoman conquests.  (As you look around you can see influences of Illyrian, Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman architecture)
