TIRANA, August 19 /ATA/ Borshi is one of the most beautiful tourist areas of the Albanian Riviera, with olive groves that extend close to the sea and with an impressive panorama.
This area is not only distinguished for coastal tourism, but also historical and cultural. At the top of the village of Borsh is located the Castle of Borsh or as it is known in history: the castle of Sopot, from where you can see the beauty of the landscape from above.
Finally, Borsh Castle has been subject to cleaning and other maintenance works by the workers of the Regional Directorate of Cultural Heritage Vlora.
Minister of Culture, Elva Margariti emphasized today that, “The employees of the Regional Directorate of Cultural Heritage Vlora take care of every monument, wherever they are located”.
“It was Borsh Castle’s turn to undergo cleaning and other maintenance work,” she said.
Borsh Castle is located 500 m above sea level and dates back to the IV-III century BC. Sopot Hill, on which the castle rises, is located north of the village of Borsh and west of Fterra. On the west side, the mountain forms some natural terraces, where you can see a series of remnants of medieval buildings.
Borshi is a wonderful tourist package that combines nature, beach, history and legend. Borshi is only 17 km away from Himara and has the longest coastline on the Ionian. /j.p/p.s./
