City of Ulcinj - Montenegro, Town of pirates

Ulcinj is the southernmost city at Montenegrin coast and one of the oldest cities on the Adriatic coast. This is town of the tumultuous past and glorious tradition is placed above the rocks, like the ship which sails into sea. Nobody could conquer it from the sea although the sea waves plash it from the three sides. Its history dates back to at least 25 centuries, during which different civilizations are changed, enriching the city with a valuable cultural and historical heritage.
During the Ottoman rule a part of the population who lived along the coast was engaged in piracy so Ulcinj was the «capital» of the pirates of the Adriatic Sea. Also during the period of Turkish reign Ulcinj was one of the biggest «market» of the wrecked people in this part of the world.
Throughout the XX century Ulcinj had a strong turning point. At this time the Salt factory - Solana and the hotels were built, which made Ulcinj to an economic and tourist centre in the state.
Ulcinj is a unique mix of many styles and cultures, reflected in city walls, fortifications, street network of markets and squares, in urban buildings, many of which are used for their intended purpose to this day. Unlike other parts of Montenegro, Ulcinj has an Oriental flavor - the long-standing Ottoman presence in the area as well as the large Muslim population in the town.
Nature has been very generous towards this part of the Adriatic coast, by creating a colourful mosaic of magnificent contrasts in a unique way. As if nature had long ago examined the variety of wishes and demands of modern people to keep in touch with its unspoiled existence, so it awarded this area with: the dark-blue clean sea, the green-eyed river Bojana and the island Ada on its delta, the rich lake Shas, the long-living olive grove, the beautiful Valdanos bay, the healing springs, the pine wood with its enchanting smell and the well known sandy beaches.

Mirëdita gjith malazez nga Ulqini unë jetoj ne Ulqin

[@valley6824]

Ulqini është qytet Shqiptar edhe pse administrohet nga një shtet i huaj. S’kanë punë Malazezët në Ulqin.

Jel' možete da mi kažete koja je ovo plaža i gde se nalazi? Na 7:15 minuta je.

[@adrialine5]

Plaza za koju ste se zainteresovali je Valdanos i nalazi se u istoimenoj uvali. Nalazi se 5-6 km od Ulcinja kada se magistralom ide prema Baru.

When do you Albanians from Kosovo actually understand that Ulcinj is Montenegro and not Albania and has nothing to do with Albania except that the Kosovo Albanians and also the people from Albania themselves live in Ulcinj and the surrounding area and have moved there over the course of the years, especially in 90 Years when the civil war was in Kosovo, thousands of Kosovar Albanians immigrated to Ulcinj as refugees and stayed there today, but that's not a problem everyone can live where they want as long as they respect the country and follow the laws of the country, so what's the point of the Albanian flage boy in your comment, this is Montenegro boy, do your Albanian flag where it is also about Albanian country and not on Montenegro or Kosovo exactly as Albania is Albania 🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱 and Kosovo is kosovo 🇽🇰🇽🇰🇽🇰🇽🇰🇽🇰🇽🇰🇽🇰 and Montenegro is Montenegro 🇲🇪🇲🇪🇲🇪🇲🇪🇲🇪🇲🇪🇲🇪 and Germany is Germany🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪 and not Turkey 🇹🇷 or Schwiez 🇨🇭 all right now your Neanderthals 🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️🧟‍♂️.

@@Bl4ckPanth3r You are the one that needs to approve the fact that these lands were Illyrian lands and no slavs ever lived on them until 7AD Century. It was an Albanian town in antiquity same as Scupi, Naissus, Bari, etc.

@@Bl4ckPanth3r Albanians have been there since planet earth was created, slavs are imigrants and the whole world knows this

[@Bl4ckPanth3r]

@@cufil7011 So one thing you really have to say, you Albanians are really Neanderthals, no shit now, you Albanians have absolutely nothing in common with the ancient Illyrians who lived 3,000 years ago, the Roman Empire completely destroyed them and ruled over these areas for 1,000 years, you Neanderthal Albanians know What does 1,000 years mean anyway, everything that was left of the Illyrians was destroyed in the war and then completely erased from history in 1,000 years of rule, including culture, people, etc. In Roman history it has all been very well documented and proven that it there were no more Illyrians and they left nobody alive except women who used them as slaves and brought them to Rome, the other fact is, you Albanians, which has also been very well documented, were in Kosovo where it was still Yugoslavia, you were Albanians in 1960 years in Kosovo, 90% of Albanian population illiterate, the first Albanian book written in Albanian language it was written in 1920 and now you tell tales of Illyrians and you are the ancient Illyrians, ridiculously simple, not even the Romans who ruled a huge empire for over 1,000 years are not Italians today, the Italians are not the ancient Romans of the Roman rich, no one in this world can say or prove that they come from a people who lived 2,000 or 3,000 years ago, no one in this world can say that or is in any way scientifically provable, except you Neanderthal Albanians who were illiterate in 60 years and not you know what it was like 70 years ago that your population was 90% illiterate. You Albanians are some slave people that either the Romans or the Ottomans brought you to the area where you are today, from somewhere they took you there as slaves for them and left you there, so that you multiply there today and have stayed there since, only God knows who you are and how you got there, but you have absolutely nothing to do with Illyrians, today you don't even know absolutely nothing about the Illyrians, you don't even know how they lived, like them spoke what they had nothing absolutely nothing we know today about the Illyrians the Romans as they documented the Illyrian tribes were completely annihilated and erased from the history of mankind, the Romans did it so well that today we know absolutely nothing about the Illyrians shows, everything that is known today from the Illyrians, everything comes from the Romans because they documented it in their history and nothing more, today one only knows that it is because of the Romans pt there was a people like Illyrians, the Romans documented all their wars about it, the Illyrians were Rome's enemies and that's why they completely destroyed Rome and their tribes so that nothing was left and that was 2,000 years ago, this fairy tale of Illyrians was her Albanians like to tell stories around the campfire is unfortunately just a fairy tale that is not true and has nothing to do with you, but you have nothing else to refer to, as I said only god knows who brought you there and how it all happened has come about.
