Vrap (it means 'running' in Albanian) is a village in the former municipality of Baldushk in Tirana County, Albania.[1] At the 2015 local government reform it became part of the municipality Tirana.[2]
Vrapi is a village with a very old history. A long time ago there was a city called Akac. This city had 7 churches the ruins of which are still visible today. One of the most important was the "Saint George" church (kisha e Shen Gjergjit) that was the biggest and was used for its strategic position for the observation of the coastal area. The village lies in a wonderful geographical position. In this village in the old times there was a branch of the Egnatia road that connected the city of Durrës with that of Elbasan, whose traces are still recognisable today.
