Golem Impression<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Golem<\/b> <\/span>- is part of the Albanian city of Durres.<\/a> When you head from the center along Rruga Pavaresia to the south, you will pass through Arapaj, Shkallnur, to Golem, alongside Shk\u00eb<\/span>mbi and Kavajes, to Mali i Robit. All these parts are overcrowded with hotels, restaurants and everythingtourists need during their stay.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"Pl\u00e1\u017e

Golem beach<\/p><\/div>\n

If you are interested in <\/span>Golem<\/span>, have any questions or you want to share your experience, you can find us also <\/span>here.<\/a><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The location <\/span>near Shk<\/b><\/span>\u00eb<\/b><\/span>mbi i Kavajes<\/b><\/span> is my regular residence during my stay in nowhere.<\/a> whether I choose a hotel or a private accommodation. This place lives its tourist life. In the summer it is teeming with vacationers, vendors and locals. Despite the fact that in Albania you will also find nicer holiday destinations, I still come back here because it is close to everywhere. From the city you can take a bus to every corner of the country. The airport is only 30 km and the port directly in town. The beach either suits you or not. <\/span><\/p>\n

This year I was pleasantly surprised and shocked by the changes<\/strong><\/span>that struck me in just a few minutes. The biggest <\/span>change was the normal road.<\/b><\/span>Where there was only a dirt road in 2016, a new asphalt is now stretched. So \"Rruga e re\"1<\/sup><\/a> became my most frequent albanian word in following days.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Golem

Golem - before<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Golem

Golem - after<\/p><\/div>\n

Another absolute shock followed when we came to the beach. Where we had waded in the sand before, because there was no other option, there is now a promenade <\/span>(promenade)<\/b><\/span>The promenade stretches along the entire beach. At regular intervals there are trash baskets and lighting. Waste disappeared from the beach.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Promen\u00e1da

Promenade under construction<\/p><\/div>\n

Except to the waste, people with bad social conditions disappeared from the beach, who were hovering along the beach in the hope that someone would help them with some remedy. The beach boys were constantly chasing them away to protect tourists. Now the beach boys <\/span>care about policia<\/b><\/span> bashkiake2<\/sup><\/a>which is crossing the beach several times a day and the beach boys have to move their shezlongs off the road3<\/sup><\/a> . <\/span><\/p>\n

Many hotels have been modernized. New, very luxurious <\/b>hotels are being built<\/b>. Hotels that still evoked the communist era and are transformed into accommodation that can easily be compared to modern hotels in Europe.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Similarly, shabby small markets are changing<\/b>and growing, with a couple of shelves with chaotically stored goods and staff who could not even greet in English. Today you will get the answer for your question \" A keni leke?\"4<\/sup><\/a> in english \u201cYes, sure. How many do you need? \u201d Many markets have reconstructed the interior and expanded the range of goods. On the streets there is a sign for the nearest market. Opening hours are still \"as long as tourists come,\" which is ultimately advantageous.<\/span><\/p>\n

The city evidently restored the largest supermarket in the area. I was not inside, but it was clear from the entrance that the interior had been restored and the product range had increased. In addition, a number of other good-level markets have emerged.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Golem

Golem - Big market with very similar products as ours<\/p><\/div>\n

\u201eAkullore\" ice cream could be bought on the street about 500 meters from our hotel in 2016. It was a wicked fridge with about 4-5 kinds of ice cream without a denomination and price, and an older ice cream maker couldn't tell you the price and kind in english anyway, as she spoke an Albanian dialect. In 2019, there was a more modern ice cream cooler in the same place, even the types and price were already marked. The ice cream was sold by a flawless English-speaking girl.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Golem

Golem - new Akullore<\/p><\/div>\n

Since 2016, many new restaurants and very nice bars have been opened. However, in those who have already been, you will finally distinguish the kamarier5<\/sup><\/a> from the visitors and the \u201cmenu vet\u00ebm n\u00eb shqip\u201d6<\/sup><\/a> has replaced by \u201cmenu in english\u201d. Kamarieri7<\/sup><\/a> already speaks english (some also serbian and macedonian )<\/b>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Other positive changes in Golem are new road signs,<\/b>restaurant and hotel signs for drivers. Albania is also gradually renewing its trains.<\/b>From the city there is several times a day dispatched train to several cities. So, finally, overgrown rails are being used again. The trains are the same old trains, which we still have in Slovakia. Depart on time and are clean.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Durres

Durres- railway station<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Cestovn\u00fd

Time schedule of train departures<\/p><\/div>\n

The country is moving forward, opening up to the world and tourists. Albanians try their best. This progress will surely be reflected in service prices over time. Naturally I keep their fingers crossed, but I hope Shqip\u00ebria8<\/sup><\/a> will remain Shqip\u00ebria. But everything cannot be perfect and flawless. The imperfection finally fits her in some way. What would it be like Albania if you did not find a tangled ball of electric cables on at least one nearly rolled wooden pole, which is supposedly still under power, children playing football under it and a few steps of parents drinking coffee with the philosophy of \"s'ka problem\"9<\/sup><\/a>? At that moment, what I hope to a nation like this will cease to exist, and it will never happen and will withstand with such pressure ... The cables will continue to be seen there.<\/span><\/p>\n
