Galerija 11/07/95

The first Memorial gallery in Bosnia and Herzegovina - exhibition place aiming to preserve the memory on Srebrenica tragedy and 8372 persons who tragically lost their lives. Through a wide range of multimedia content - images, maps, audio and video materials, the Gallery aims to offer its visitors the documentary and artistic interpretation of the events that took place during July 1995 in Srebrenica.

This small museum does an excellent job of showing man's inhumanity to man during the war in the 1990s. The audio guide is necessary in order to understand the poignant photographs displayed. Be sure to budget enough time to sit through the entire series of videos being shown. The stories of the wives and mothers are heartbreaking.

A gateway to heaven. A village which God has chosen, because people's hearts are ready to accept His Mother, Mary, with love & trust. A place where you feel Mary's heavenly peace & motherly love. A place of prayer, peace, healing, forgiveness & love. Medjugorje, a litlle piece of heaven in our troubled world.

Museum Of Crimes Against Humanity And Genocide 1992-1995

The Museum of Crimes Against Humanity and Genocide 1992 – 1995 was founded in July 2016 as an initiative to sustain the memory of all the victims of the war that lasted from 1992- 1995. The founders of the museum themselves are victims who survived the war. Together with young people they have made the museum a reality and keep it working. The museum exhibit contains a variety of photos and personal items that hold the stories of the war victims. The museum staff has given their best to transfer those stories into written pieces that proudly stand next to every item. In order to make the visit more authentic and realistic, the museum presents simulations of a mass grave and solitary confinement. Keeping the memory alive is an important factor in avoiding genocides and massacres in the future. History is something we must remember!

First of all - prepare to read... a lot. Every single piece has a backstory and some items, even though they might seem simple can have quite lengthy, heavily heartbreaking ones. You won't come out the same person you entered after getting close to all the stories described in this museum. Make sure to write how you feel in the room full of post it notes from patrons from all around the world.

The War Childhood Museum opened in Sarajevo in January 2017. The Museum‘s collection contains a number of personal belongings, stories, audio and video testimonies, photographs, letters, drawings and other documents offering valuable insight into the unique experience of growing up in wartime. The 2018 Council of Europe Museum Prize – one of the most prestigious awards in the museum industry – has been awarded to the War Childhood Museum under the European Museum of the Year scheme.

As someone who is born in Sarajevo and spent childhood in Sarajevo during the war, I must say that this museum is fascinating and unique, both for people in Sarajevo and tourists. All stories in the museum are unique, some sad some funny, but great describe everyday life of children in war period. And that life wasn't easy. Staff is great and very helpful. The museum is very close to the old city. I recommend for everyone to come and visit it.

Mostar is a short 2-3hr drive from the Croatian coastal cities of Split and Dubrovnik - making it an excellent choice for a day trip. Most of the Town was destroyed during the civil war but has been painstakingly restored. The focal point is the iconic bridge which is packed with tourist waiting to watch local men jump the 21 metres in to the ice cold water below. Firstly, it’s a show for money - so be expected to contribute. Secondly it’s not for the faint of hearted - 21m is a long way day, especially diving in to water just 6m deep. Either side of the bridge are shops and restaurants where you can stop for lunch, a beer and watch the performance.

Kravice Falls

Reviewed By albaj2013 - London, United Kingdom

We planned a day trip from Dubrovnik: driving through the Croatian and Bosnian mountains all the way to the beautiful town of Mostar, and stopping at Kravica waterfalls on the way back. Really cute place - not huge waterfalls but still very lovely and nice to relax and swim ( if you can bare the very cold water!).

Sarajevo War Tunnel

Reviewed By joknees - Sydney, Australia

After reading alot about the Seige in Sarajevo I really wanted to visit this place and I certainly wasn't disappointed. From the second you arrive walking past the original house with bullet holes and continue inside to watch the documentaries and then see the tunnel itself is incredible. The entrance fee is 10BAM and we'll worth it. There is lots to see and learn here. It is quite small compared to other places, but it gives you a real sense of the struggle that the Sarajevo locals faced during the siege.

Bascarsija

Bascarsija is Sarajevo's old bazaar and the historical and cultural center of the city. Bascarsija was built in the 15th century when Isa-Beg Isakovic founded the town. The word Bascarsija derives from the Turkish language. The word "bas" which is "bas" in Turkish literally means "head", in some contexts however also "primary", "main", "capital" and "carsija" which is "carsi" in Turkish means "bazaar" or "market". Due to the large fire in the 19th century, today Bascarsija is half the size that it once was. Bascarsija is located on the north bank of the river Miljacka, in the municipality of Stari Grad. On Bascarsija there are several important historic buildings, such as the Gazi Husrev-beg Mosque and sahat-kula. Today Bascarsija is the major tourist attraction of Sarajevo.

We had a wonderful stay in Sarajevo, for almost a month, before a sudden departure, (due to covid-19), the highlight of the city is definitely, the old neighbourhood, we spent most of our time here just walking the alleyways, enjoying the food, (which is amazing) and the coffee houses, (a wonderful experience) we highly recommend starting a visit, with a free walking tour of the old town to get your boots on the ground. Our faves: Cock tower and bakery, (Pekara Imaret loacated within the courtyard), Bosna eatery Baklava coffee shop

Not only for the Olympics but also during the war the track played a significant role, so walking it down with the beautiful trees that surround the area makes it very nice. And yes at the very top before you enter the path you can have a beautiful view of the city.
