The government head underlined that the event was designed to teach kids develop an understanding and connection to nature.

“Through the colorful spring atmosphere in Gjirokastra Bazaar, children learn to love nature and beauty,” PM Rama said in his post on the social media.

The children have planted mallows, carnations and gardenia, expressing their love for the city and nature.

“I bring a vase, you give me a flower” was the spring initiative launched by the municipality of Gjirokastra and the businesses at Old Bazaar area, making alleys at Bazaar Pas bloom together with the kids,” PM Rama said.

The Minister of Tourism and Environment, Mirela Kumbaro, and the Head of the Delegation of the European Union to Albania, Ambassador Silvio Gonzato, joined the event.

The Gjirokastra Bazaar neighbourhood lies long beneath the castle walls, with its cobblestoned streets, medieval facades, and array of wonderfully handcrafted gifts.
