Pliva Waterfall in Jajce
The Pliva Waterfall, located in the center of the town of Jajce, was formed about 50,000 years ago. Throughout its history, Jajce has undergone changes in leadership and governance, but the waterfall has remained unchanged. Majestic and proud, it has withstood the test of time and numerous conquerors. It serves as a symbol not only for Jajce but also for Bosnia and Herzegovina. Below the waterfall, the Pliva River flows into the Vrbas River, and together, they continue their journey toward the Sava River. The Pliva River forms numerous small cascades and waterfalls, with the final cascade being the approximately 20-meter-high waterfall that symbolizes Jajce and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
