Colorful bunker a sign of the Albanian past
Thousands of bunkers, remnants of post World War II, dot the entire Albanian country. Dictator Enver Hoxha built them in the 1960's to 1980's of concrete and steel to prevent invasion of Albania by foreign powers. Never used, they are now being repurposed.
