Short walk through Mostar
September 19, 2007 by Luka
Mostar is a number one tourist attraction of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Surprisingly it attracts more visitors than Sarajevo or any other destination in the country. One of the reasons is definitely its location – it lies less than an hour away from Adriatic coast and about two hours driving from Dubrovnik or Sarajevo. Summer is the top season and the old bridge is always packed with tourists impatiently waiting for THE moment – a jump from the bridge to cold Neretva river. The old bridge was demolished during the last war, but it was reconstructed in 2004.
Mostar and its most famous sight – the old bridge!
A view on the bridge from the right riverbank. As you can see, the bridge still looks freshly built as it would be reconstructed yesterday.
A rare view – I was lucky to take this shot without hundreds of people on it.
This is the moment when everybody on the bridge and around it hold their breath. The height is supposed to be almost 30 metres!
Colourful local market on the left side of the river Neretva. Here you will find a variety of souvenirs from old Turkish era, second WW and even from the last war.
These two containers were used to hold fresh water from Neretva river. There is a lot of stuff like that for sale on the busy streets of the old town.
That’s me, wearing traditional Turkish clothes at Biscevica cosak (an old Turkish house).
Traditional Bosnian slippers. They are surprisingly comfortable to wear!
If you like drinking coffee, then Bosnia is the right place for you to be!
This is my favourite shot from Mostar. Quite powerful message! What do you think of it?
This blog is about my two greatest passions; photography and travelling. I want to share my experiences with as many people as possible. If you like this place, leave me a comment and show it to your friends as well! Enjoy!
