Jan 17th - This article below is Great News for the tourism in Albania ! There are a number of plans for big touristic projects throughout the coast but at last the first one of any genuine size is under way. This should have a snowball effect and we this expect good news to yet again increase the numbers of tourists who are coming to Albania as a new holiday destination in Europe “Construction work has begun on Albania's first Club Med seaside resort village. Four years after the government gave the go-ahead, television pictures showed building equipment and heavy machines digging near the beach on the bay of Kakome, facing Greece's holiday island of Corfu." "We have now begun work and everything is going normally. I thank the government and the police for their help," said Dritan Celaj, manager of the local Club Med partner Albanian Riviera. The project's developers and the government hope the 30 million euro project will put Albania, which closed itself off from the world for nearly 40 years after World War Two under Stalinist dictator Enver Hoxha, on the mass tourism map. With French-owned Club Mediterranee as tour operator and partner, local firm Albanian Riviera won a license in 2004 from Socialist Prime Minister Fatos Nano to build 350 luxury villas with 700 beds in the center of the horseshoe-shaped bay.” |
