A Journey through Time - GEO Germany
Nestled in the rugged mountains of Northern Albania, the road from Shkoder to Lepushe and Vermosh, two remote villages in the Accursed Mountains, weaves a story that spans centuries. This ancient route, once a narrow path carved by shepherds and traders, has evolved into a vital artery connecting isolated villages to the wider world. Already existing while the Ottoman Empire, it was an old trade route used by caravans. The journey is not just a passage through breathtaking landscapes but also a voyage through the rich cultural tapestry of the region, highlighting the significance of Lepushe, a small village that has been a silent witness to the transformations in this rugged region, from the days of communism to the present. Where traditions endure and the spirit of the people remains unyielding.
