    Mostar, BiH (Bosnia and Herzegovina)

    6 ottobre 2022, Bosnia Erzegovina ⋅ ⛅ 23 °C

    Mostar is the crown jewel of BiH, and what many consider the prettiest city. It was once the capital of Herzegovina before joining merged with Bosnia post Yugoslavia breakup. Although tensions between ethnic groups and remnants of the war exist today, Mostar is very much on a comeback swing when it comes to tourism. Today its a very welcoming city, with friendly people and a beautiful old town. The old bridge is Mostars pride and is a beautiful sight to see. In warm weather the local men jump from the bridge after gathering enough money from the crowd. Together with local copper smith's (five families still exist in the city), a bustling Bazar selling jewelry, sobering museums, cashmere scarfs, and Mostar silk it is truly a hidden jem worth visiting.Leggi altro
