Highlights
- The Old Bridge (Stari Most) in Mostar
Reconstructed after the war, the Old Bridge stands as a meaningful symbol of unity and strength. Stretching over the clear green waters of the Neretva River, it attracts visitors who come to watch local divers jump from the bridge into the river below, a tradition that has been kept alive through generations. The surrounding stone walls and riverside cafés create a lively setting where history blends naturally with daily life.
- Bazar Kujundžiluk
Exploring Bazar Kujundžiluk is like stepping into a different era. This narrow, cobbled street features workshops and stalls where craftsmen produce and sell handmade jewelry, copper items, and traditional fabrics. The aroma of freshly brewed Bosnian coffee fills the air as locals and tourists gather in cozy cafés, making it a perfect place to experience Mostar’s cultural atmosphere and find unique keepsakes.
- Blagaj Tekke
A short drive from Mostar brings you to the Blagaj Tekke, a Dervish monastery located beside the source of the Buna River. The spring flows from the base of a cliff, creating an impressive natural scene.
