Tirana, Capital city in western Balkans, Albania.
Tirana spreads across a valley surrounded by mountains, with wide boulevards, colorful buildings, and numerous parks scattered throughout the urban landscape.
The city transformed from a small Ottoman settlement established in 1614 into the capital of Albania in 1920 through significant political developments.
The National Museum of History in Skanderbeg Square exhibits numerous artifacts and documents that represent the development of Albanian civilization through centuries.
The Rinas Express bus service connects Tirana International Airport with the city center every hour from 6 AM to 6 PM daily.
The former nuclear bunker Bunk'Art, built during the Cold War period, now functions as a contemporary museum and cultural space.
