Bosnia and Herzegovina 🇧🇦, Mostar

Mostar is a city in the south of Bosnia and Herzegovina, unique in that it combines two cultures, European and Asian, and two religions – Islam and Christianity.

The name of the settlement was given by a bridge built by the Ottoman Turks in the middle of the XVI century and called the Old One. The main attraction of the city was destroyed in the 90s of the twentieth century during the Bosnian War. But already in the 2000s, the bridge over the Neretva, which connected the two parts of the city, was restored, becoming a symbol of a return to peaceful life.

Tourists who come to Mostar are given the opportunity to visit two cultures at the same time – it is only necessary to cross the Old Bridge over the Neretva. On the east side of the river stretches the Muslim part of the city, with stunning mosques, and on the west – the Christian, with beautiful churches.
