National Sport Park Resort Tirana

If Sunday had a name

"The "National Sport Park Resort" in Tirana creates the perfect environment for me to be inner peace. In summer there's also a pool I really like."

If Sunday was an advice it would be "have fun and relax". And if Sunday was a place, it would be National Sport Park - Resort; a giant area that includes two swimming pools, a restaurant, a football field, tennis and basketball courts. I totally adore sports and once a week is enough for me to spend a whole day doing what I enjoy the most: swimming, playing and eating.

Everything at National Sport Park creates that "inner peace" for me: being surrounded by the green color of harmony and energy at the same time. Even at nights, I like the music in the background while siting on the tables near the pool (the one at the garden) with the phone switched off so nothing can ruin my day of relaxation.

National Sport Park might not be close to the center but it can be reached by public transportation and the buss stop of that bus line (Sharra - Uzina Dinamo) is very close to the center so you can get there very easy if you didn't come to Tirana by car. 

P.s. Only the bar is 24 hours open and the pools are functional only during summer season.

Iliria'98

Money exchange

"Iliria'98" in Tirana is the currency exchange office I head to before going abroad. It's the cheapest in the city, so I recommend you use it, too.

Painters on the Street

Artsy corners

Tirana has its fair share of "Painters on the street". I like how colorful they make their corners and the warm feeling looking at their art gives me.
