TIRANA, September 16 /ATA/ The “Almon” project is to build tourist piers in Lake Shkodra and it will soon create the necessary infrastructure for tourist navigation in the lake between Shkodra – Shiroka – Zogaj and Vir Pazar.
This project financed by the European Union, through the IPA Adriatic CBC Program Italy – Montenegro – Albania and implemented by the Albanian Development Fund, has already entered the stage of concrete implementation.
“With this project, the development of tourism and the economy in these areas and the entire territory of the municipality of Shkodra takes another dimension”, the City Hall said in a post on social networks.
During a meeting held between representatives of Shkodra Municipality, ADF, Tivar Municipality and other actors, the architect Jesus Hernandez, one of the main contributors to the development planning in the area of the lake and the entrance to the city of Shkodra, presented his vision for an integrated development of the entire area.

The Municipality of Shkodra will be committed to ensure that these jetties are not only points for anchoring light boats and promoting navigation in the lake, but will also serve as recreational centers where it will be possible to play sports, hold cultural and environmental activities that promote visits and tourism. /k.s/p.s./
