9th July 2022: Valbona Valley, Albania

The Valbona Valley is located in the Albanian Alps in northern Albania. In 1996 the Valbona Valley National Park was created, which however is since 2022 a part of the Alps of Albania National Park. Within the valley are some old beech forests included on the UNESCO List.

The left stamp shows Albanian scholar and writer Dhimitër Shuteriqi (1915-2003). It is from a set of four honouring Famous Men (issued 28-09-2015). Although inscribed 2021, the right stamp was just issued on 14th April 2022. It is from a set of two about the Egyptian Vulture.


Thank You very much Marcel!
