The newly built Tirana Business Center.

It houses names like Lufthansa, Compaq, Trussardi

and the first private Albanian bank, Dardania Bank

Hotel Europa Rogner - built exactly where

the Communist party headquarters were planned

to be built 15 years ago, it is another

product of Albania's young capitalism.

Formerly the mausoleum of dictator

Enver Hoxha, it has been turned into

the International Center of Culture.
