Moscopole

Moscopole, a village in Korce County in southeastern Albania, is a magnificent tourism green town that blends its rich culture, traditions, and nature harmoniously harmonized to create a lasting tourist value. It was the Aromanians' cultural and commercial center in the 18th century.

The community is famed for its centuries-old civilization, which dates back to 1330, breathtaking scenery, multiple churches and frescoes, all of which include valuable cultural assets, as well as organic food and traditional dishes. But today, Moscopole is only a little, lovely, secluded mountain village with a population of around 500 people, located 21 kilometers west of Korce at an elevation of 1160 meters and surrounded by the beautiful Morava Mountains, whose orchards and fields hide the ruins of its previous glory.

In Moscopole, These were the main considerations for coming in what is now a little mountain community 20 kilometers west of Corizza, surrounded by the lovely Morava mountains and meadows. The churches of Voscopoja are true works of Albanian art; the Church of San Nicola, the Church of Santa Maria, the Church of San Atanasio, the Church of San Michele, the Church of S. Elia, and the Monastery of San Giovanni Battista are just a few examples. Their wall murals are magnificent, comparable to those found in Greece's famous monasteries.
