Preza sits close enough to Rinas airport to work as a first or last stop on a trip, yet few visitors seem to know it: reviewers regularly call it a hidden gem. Byzantine emperor Justinian is credited with building it in the 550s, and what survives today is largely ruin — a watch tower and a small mosque, not intact halls — but the platform view is the real draw, taking in Kruja, Durrës and the Tirana plain in one wide arc. A café inside serves coffee to match the panorama, and at dawn the sunrise light mixed with the call to prayer drifting up from the valley gives the site real atmosphere.
