Sky Tower Tirana, Postmodern building in central Tirana, Albania
Sky Tower Tirana is a 17-story postmodern building in the city center with a cylindrical shape and glass and metal throughout its structure. The tower narrows as it rises, creating a tapered silhouette that stands out from surrounding buildings.
Sky Tower was built in the early 21st century and marked Tirana's shift from communist-era architecture to modern commercial development. The building represents the capital's economic modernization following major political changes.
The rotating restaurant on the 16th floor shows guests local cooking while they look out over the city. It is a place where locals and visitors gather to eat and drink together.
The tower's facilities are publicly accessible, though the restaurant operates during specific hours. It is helpful to check opening times before visiting, especially if you plan to dine or stay.
The restaurant slowly rotates to view the entire city, completing one full turn in about 45 minutes. This lets diners see a complete panorama of the capital without moving from their seats.
