Viluni Lagoon, Velipoje, North West Albania
Europe
Viluni Lagoon (Albanian: Laguna e Vilunit or Keneta e Vilunit), also commonly Lagoon of Velipoje, is a lagoon of the Adriatic Sea on the Mediterranean Sea in the northern coast of Albania. Throughout history, the lagoon was a sea inlet and has been currently transformed into an estuary formed through a channel from the Buna River. The lagoon of Viluni, is located 2 km east of the beach of Velipoja, about 300 ha of surface, up to 1 m deep and only in small sectors up to 2-3 m. Surrounded by wetlands, it communicates with the sea through a natural channel, in which, due to the ebb and flow, the water changes direction every 6 hours. There is salty water with an average temperature of 20 - 22 ºC in July and 5-7 ºC in February. It is rich in fish of different types and very tasty. There are also many birds (183 species) migratory and permanent, reptiles and mammals around: rabbit, fox, wolf, wild boar, etc. The lagoon is situated within the boundaries of the Buna River-Velipoja Protected Landscape and has been recognized as an Important Bird Area wetland of international importance by designation under the Bird Life International Convention.

More About Europe

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights. In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states. Text by Steve Smith.
