Although thw forests play an important role in providing oxygen, the pressure of constructors bring forth the discussion of building in the area.
    Transportation system of the city is being transormed. 5-10 years ago the city was in serious traffic chaos due to minibuses named Buseta. Now Municipal buses replaced them. You can see electrical buses on the roads.
