The Archaeological Park of Antigonea, nestled on a hillside in the Drino Valley near Gjirokaster, Albania, dates back to 290 BC. Today, visitors can explore the remnants of this ancient Greek city, which include stone walls and pillars that trace the outlines of former buildings, roads, and towers. The park offers a serene setting with expansive views of the valley and the mountains opposite, providing a glimpse into the historical and geographical context of this once-thriving urban center.
