Today, it's a popular tourist attraction offering panoramic views of the city and the Adriatic Sea.
The Durres Amphitheater is one of the most significant archaeological sites in Albania, located in the city of Durres. Dating back to the 2nd century AD, it is one of the largest Roman amphitheaters in the Balkans, capable of accommodating around 15,000 spectators. The site is well-preserved, and visitors can explore its grand structure, which once hosted gladiator contests and other public spectacles. It's a fascinating glimpse into Albania's rich historical heritage.
The Sphinx of Durres, Albania, is a fascinating monument located near the waterfront. It's an ancient Roman artifact believed to have been brought from Egypt during the Roman period. The origins and purpose of the sphinx remain somewhat mysterious, adding to its allure as a tourist attraction and archaeological curiosity in Durres.
