Western Balkans: Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Serbia
Share your photos of the Western Balkans on social media and win a prize
The Western Balkans are one of the most beautiful of the regions where the EBRD works. And Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Serbia are full of surprises.
Nikola Tesla, the inventor and mathematician, was a Serb (born in Smiljan in Austrian Empire, modern-day Croatia) and Mother Teresa (or Mary Teresa Bojaxhiu), the Nobel prize-winning missionary, was born in what is now North Macedonia.
Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina and the host of this year’s EBRD Annual Meeting and Business Forum, was one of the first cities to have its own tram system.
Lord Byron praised Albanian dresses in letters to his mother. Whilst the oldest tree in Europe- Stara Maslina- grows in Bar in Montenegro and is over 2,000 years old.
