TIRANA, April 20 – Lock Haven University’s Institute of International Studies hosted Albania Night in an effort to boost the tiny Balkan country’s profile in the world of tourism.
The proud, eastern European country of Albania boasts an amazing history, colorful culture and strong people.
Located on the Adriatic Sea, bordering Macedonia, Kosovo and Greece, Albania is a colorful and fascinating country. Its rich culture shows Italian, Greek, Turkish and Serbian influences, as seen in its unique blend of food, art, and music traditions.
During the ceremony there was promoted a sample Albania’s traditional cuisine, including delicious sweet bread, yogurt salads and date cookies. All foods will go well with Avenue 209’s wide selection of warm drinks.
Albania is famous for its rich tapestries and fabrics. At the event, fabrics will be supplied to make necklaces, bracelets, and so much more.
Albania Night is the last multicultural night of the year. Come and try something different for your Tuesday night. All ages are welcome to come to enjoy good companionship and a “Taste of Albania.”
