How they differ
| Berat | Gjirokastër | |
|---|---|---|
| Look | White plaster, terracotta roofs, many windows | Grey stone walls and silver slate roofs |
| Site | Two quarters facing each other across the Osum | One steep slope below a ridge castle |
| Castle | Still inhabited; around 20 churches inside | A very large fortress, not a neighbourhood |
| Museums | Onufri icon museum; ethnographic house | Skenduli and Zekate houses; castle armoury; Kadare's house |
| Landscape | Osum canyon, Mount Tomorr, vineyards | Drino valley, Antigonea, Blue Eye, the Vjosa |
| Walking | Steep cobbles in the castle quarter | Steeper; the bazaar street is a climb |
| Combines with | Tirana, Apollonia, the Osum canyon | Sarandë, Butrint, Përmet, the Riviera |
| UNESCO | Inscribed 2008 | Inscribed 2005 |
Choosing between them
Berat is the softer, greener and easier of the two, and the inhabited castle is genuinely unusual — it is a neighbourhood with a fortress wall around it.
Gjirokastër is harder, more monumental and more atmospheric, and its tower houses are the better architecture. It also sits on the route south to Sarandë and the Riviera.
If you are driving the country you can and should do both — they are about three hours apart. If you must choose, choose Berat for a first trip and Gjirokastër if you already know you like Ottoman domestic architecture.
