Places You’ll Visit

Mostar Bridge

The Mostar Bridge is an old structure spanning the Neretva River, which divides the city of Mostar in Bosnia and Herzegovina. What makes it special is not only its historical significance or its architectural beauty. For centuries, it has allowed countless people to cross from one side to the other, serving as both a physical and symbolic bridge. It has suffered many damages over time, but it has always been rebuilt and stood even stronger. If you come closer and listen carefully, it will tell you many stories.

Blagaj

This settlement is currently known as a popular destination as it is considered a center for dervishes. It is a meeting point for Sufis from all around the world. According to a legend, a Bektashi named Sarı Saltuk came here in the 14th century before the arrival of the Ottomans in the region, and this event is believed to be the reason the area became known in this way. In Blagaj, there is a river that flows down from the mountains, adding even more beauty to the place. While enjoying the scenery in the restaurants located along the river, you can also taste different types of fish caught from the river and take a nature walk following the river towards the mountain. This approximately 2-kilometer walk allows you to enjoy both Blagaj and nature at the same time. There are also many camping areas around the river.

 

Baščaršija

Also known as the Old Bazaar, Baščaršija has historically been one of the most important meeting and trading centers not only in Sarajevo but also in the entire Balkans. Located in the center of Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina, this famous Ottoman bazaar was established in the 16th century and is still in use today, forming the heart of the city. It was one of the main targets of destruction during the Bosnian War by the Serbian army. Surrounded by Ottoman mosques on all sides, Baščaršija contains a caravanserai, a madrasa, and many public kitchens built by Gazi Husrev-bey, the Bosnian governor. In its main square stands a beautiful fountain that has become one of Sarajevo’s symbols. Many of the structures in Baščaršija, also known as the “Turkish quarter,” belong to the Gazi Husrev-bey Foundation.

Počitelj

During the Ottoman period, this village was also used as a border outpost, allowing you to take a journey back in time. Climbing to the highest points of Počitelj and enjoying the breathtaking view of the village is one of the most valuable activities to experience in Bosnia. In addition, the old Ottoman houses, the fortress, watchtowers, and the architectural beauty of the stone streets will guide you in understanding the historical importance of Počitelj village.
