The best souvenir shopping is in Kruja, where shop windows are full of jewellery, antiques and knickknacks. If you don’t have time to get there, check these shops in Tirana. There are also some kiosks selling Albania mugs, plastic guns, dolls and bunker ashtrays at the southern end of Rr. Barrikadave. Albanian cheese and other foodstuffs also make excellent gifts if you can get them home without eating them all on the plane.
