Riviera of Albanian , Great nature !

Riviera of  Albanian (Riviera shqiptare/Bregu) is a coastal area in the County of Vlorë running along theIonian Sea under the Ceraunian Mountains in Southern Albania. It should not be confused with the Albanian coastline as a whole which includes both the Riviera and the mostly flat coastline of central and north Albania. Traditionally, the region begins south of Llogara National Park, continues down along the coast through the villages of Borsh, Himara, Qeparo, Piqeras, and ends at Lukovë. Other sources mark Sarandë or Tongo Island as the end point, and Vlorë or Karaburun Peninsula as the start point. The Albanian riviera was procclaimed as the 2012 Top Value Destination by Frommer's.

In 2009, the region gained international attention after the reconstruction of the coastal road SH8, DJ Tiesto's tour stop in Dhermi and the filming of a Top Gear episode featuring a breath-taking car pursuit along the winding coastal road. and Bon Jovi's and Roger Taylor's holiday stops along the coast.

The area is a major nightlife, ecotourist, and elite retreat destination in Albania. The region features traditional Mediterranean villages, ancient castles, and Orthodox churches. In fact, the landscape alternates between mountain passes, turquoise beaches, underwater fauna, caves, and orange, lemon and olive plantations.

In 48 BC during his pursuit of Pompey, Julius Caesar set foot and rested his legion at Palase. He continued onto Llogara Pass in a place later named Caesar's Pass. As part of the regional master plan, the World Bank and other institutions are financing local infrastructure projects, including the renovation of roofs and facades of traditional houses overlooking the Riviera.
