Gjirokastra's eerie hilltop castle is one of the biggest in the Balkans. There's been a fortress here since the 12th century, although much of what can be seen today dates to the early 19th century.

Inside there's a collection of armoury, two good museums, plenty of crumbling ruins to scramble around, and superb views over the valley.The castle grounds also house a recovered US Air Force jet with an interesting backstory as to how it got here.
