The Museum of Oriental Art "Bratko" is a national museum in Albania that is dedicated to Asian art. It is located in the city of Korçë, which is in the southern part of the country. The museum was established and inaugurated in June 2003, fulfilling the dream of George Dimitri Boria, an Albanian-American photographer, who donated his collection of Asian art to the municipality of Korçë with the condition that a museum be opened.
The Museum of Oriental Art "Bratko" houses a collection of 432 objects on display. These include a piano, a Chinese altar, a Japanese kimono, an embroidered Chinese belt, an Indonesian sword, European medals, Japanese paintings, and various photographs taken by Boria during his post-war missions with the United Nations. These photographs are unique as they depict the social and cultural history of the East immediately after the Second World War, as well as the significant role that American forces and General MacArthur played in the economic and institutional reconstruction of Japan.
