ティラナ
ティラナはアルバニアの首都です. It lies in the centre of our country and it is considered a city of religious coexistence, as well as the center of culture, art, politics, and the economy. Tirana became the capital of Albania in 1920 with more than 763,634 inhabitants today. It is an old settlement as confirmed by the Mosaic of Tirana, which was part of an old Roman villa build in the III century. One famous building is the Clock Tower in the center of Tirana, which was built in XIX century, between 1822 – 1840.

Part of the cultural heritage of the city are also the old houses, which are known as the real architectural ensemble of the historical core of Tirana.
