Leskoviku, take two (in technicolor, oh dear)


You know what I appreciate in particular about this part of Albania? You can find the Islamic crescent and the Orthodox cross comfortably communing across twilight rooftops in any sleepy village.

In Leskovik, the throaty call to prayer echoes on the barreled valley floor and the tolling church bell rolls down the mountainside, issuing a companionable reply.

Where else do you find that?
