Kamenica

kamenica

Kamenica, or as the well-known Albanian journalist Marin Mema prefers to call it, the unknown pearl of the Albanian Mediterranean, is one of the most special tours offered by Tea Tours.

The buildings in Kamenica date in mass but not entirely in the XII century and some are well preserved. The removal of the inhabitants according to archaeologists has occurred sometime in the early eighteenth century.

The central part is what is known as the Bazaar Neck, surrounded by numerous characteristic constructions located on the slope of the terrain. Kamenica’s main features have begun to take place in the XI century, a period related to the development of the entire Mediterranean. The identified churches are 13, but their numbers are constantly increasing and archaeologists feel that there may be others waiting to be discovered. Eight of them have been identified in research conducted by the professors Alexander Meksi and Emin Riza in the 1970s.

In Kamenica you’ll have an unforgettable tour.
