PROGRAMMES: ACORSS THE BALKANS: ANCIENT ALBANIAN CITY DURRES MODERNISED
Durres is one of Albania's oldest cities, with more than 3000 years of recorded history. Since ancient times, Durres has been a vital economic hub and gateway into the Balkan peninsula, and has borne the footprints of several invasions. Now, modern multi-storey buildings are rising next to ancient sites, where a new luxury yacht harbour is redefining the city's skyline. Critics say the transformation threatens to erase the traces of old civilisations.
