Ville
Shkodër
The cultural capital of the north: a lake, a fortress, a bicycle city and a Catholic heartland.
En clair
Lake Koman is not a natural lake — it was made by a dam on the Drin river. The water fills a very narrow canyon, and a passenger ferry runs along it. Many travellers take the boat just for the scenery on the way to Valbonë.
