Cut into the hillside below Gjirokastër's Old Bazaar, this Cold War bunker was stocked to keep functionaries alive for two months underground in case of nuclear war, and one guide still walks visitors through with memories of the air-raid drills she ran here as a ten-year-old. Tickets must be bought at the City Hall first, tours leave hourly between 10am and 3pm, and the walk itself is a bare, echoing 15 to 20 minutes past rusted vents and empty rooms; several of the 728 reviewers behind its 4.3 average wish the state had left more of the original furniture in place.
