Çiftelia is a type of musical instrument that is similar to a guitar. It is from Albania, which is a country in Europe.
The çiftelia has a long neck that sticks out of a round body. On the neck, there are metal strings that are plucked or strummed with a pick. The sound from the strings travels through the body of the instrument and out through a small hole called a soundhole.
People who play the çiftelia make beautiful music by pressing down their fingers on the strings at different places along the neck. This changes the pitch of the sound that comes out of the instrument.
The music made on the çiftelia is often played at celebrations, like weddings and festivals, and can be very fast and lively or slow and peaceful. It is an important part of Albanian culture and history.
