Tirana returns to the capital of world architecture - Over 600 experts at the Bread and Heart Festival.

Tirana welcomed this week the second edition of the Bread and Heart Festival, an international event that brought hundreds of architects, urban planners and urban development experts from different countries of the world to Albania.
According to Prime Minister Edi Rama, the festival has become an important platform for the exchange of ideas and professional experiences, placing Albania at the center of the international debate on architecture and urban planning.
"About 600 professionals from all over the world were in Tirana. They collaborate with young Albanians and create an open school of architecture and urban development as Albania has become today," said Rama.
He highlighted the participation of renowned names in world architecture and experts who have also been involved in important development projects in the country.
According to the Prime Minister, the festival proves that Albania is increasingly seen as a laboratory of new urban ideas and as a place where international experts can contribute to projects with long-term impact for the development of the territory.
