You will shake you head in amazement and amusement as you see this graffiti covered concrete pyramid that serves now as a climbing challenge for teenagers (and drunks) and offers a very long skateboard or slidiing opportunity. What were these leaders thinking?! More

This pyramid is really ugly, and might not be there for much longer, but if it is it is a laugh, one of the things not to be missed in Tirana. More

the architecture and the project is unique, but it is not more than a ruined and deteriorated mausoleum for the dead Dictator. More

I was very excited to see this architectural marvel only to see it is not in use and in a state of disrepair. The Pyramid was once the most expensive building built under the Enver Hoxha regime. Having said that, it does truly give you an insight, the manifesto and grandeur plans of the opressive regime. More
