<p>Lake Skadar<br />
Lake Skadar is the largest lake on the Balkan Peninsula and in Southern Europe by surface area. This beautiful lake—also known as Shkodra, Shkoder, and Scutari—straddles the border between Albania and Montenegro. One-third of its surface area lies in Albania, with the remainder in Montenegro. Lake Skadar is one of the few lakes in Europe that has remained largely untouched by commercialization or development; it supports a diverse range of habitats and wildlife, including the endangered Dalmatian pelican and the black tern. In addition to its natural beauty, the area surrounding the lake is home to numerous old churches, monasteries, and fishing villages.<br />
