2 nights in Sarajevo, Bosnia

Our take

Experience the vibrant charm of Sarajevo, Bosnia, over two unforgettable nights from April 24-26. This trip included an exhilarating day tour through stunning Herzegovina, where we explored picturesque towns like Mostar, Konjic, Blagaj, and Pocitelj, culminating in the breathtaking Kravice Falls. The city center buzzes with a rich blend of Austria-Hungary and Ottoman influences, creating a unique atmosphere. The locals’ warmth and the captivating architecture made every moment special. From the serene dervish house in Blagaj to the iconic “sebilj” fountain

24-26 April, Bosnia & Herzegovina trip.

Spent 2 nights in Sarajevo, Bosnia. Took a day tour to Herzegovina, visiting different towns; Mostar, Konjic, Blagaj, Pocitelj, and Kravice Falls. Overall it was a lovely experience; locals were very kind, city center was very vibrant and beautiful, also our tour went smoothly.

Sarajevo is worth visiting to see the influences of both Austria-Hungary and Ottoman architecture, separated by just couple of meters in the city center. 1st photo is from Kravice Falls, which is located at the Crotian border, south of Mostar. It was majestic, worth seeing (the weather became very hot as we went from Sarajevo to the southern part of the country - so I strongly recommend having different layers of clothing to switch easily). 2nd photo is from a beautiful historic stone bridge in Konjic. 3rd one is from Bascarsija, cultural city center of Sarajevo. It is an Ottoman style “sebilj” (fountain) which was actually reconstructed by an Austrian architect after it was destroyed in a fire. Last photo is from Blagaj, it’s a dervish (like a Muslim monk) house located just near to the source of the Buna River. It is still actively used by the members of different Muslim organizations.
