{"id":282,"count":4,"description":"Sarajevo is the capital and largest city of Bosnia and Herzegovina and serves as its administrative, economic, university and cultural center. The largest area of town lies at the foot of Mt. Trebevi\u0107 and the Miljacka River flows through the city.\r\n\r\nIt represents a city where east and west meet and is famous for being the city of the four religions.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8175\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarajevo-2597608_1280-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" \/>\r\n\r\nWith the Ottoman presence for Bosnia and Herzegovina began a period of considerable strategic importance for what was the geopolitics of those centuries, the traces of the Turkish-Ottoman presence are still visible today, we recommend a tour of the mosques, a tangible sign of art and a very significant architecture.\r\n\r\nThere are several markets, where are a real institution, many of them are indoor and you can find real bargains there.\r\n\r\nSarajevo has always represented a very important cultural center, today it is home to several universities, both public and private, many festivals, and numerous museums.\r\n\r\n<strong>Vrhunske atrakcije\u00a0<\/strong>\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8177\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarajevo-4505757_1280-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/>\r\n\r\n<strong>1. Stari grad: Ba\u0161\u010dar\u0161ija i Sebilj \u010desma<\/strong>\r\nBascarsija (tur. \u2013 the main market) was established in the 15th century by Isa-Bey Ishakovic, the founder of Sarajevo, and Ghazi Husrev-Bey who left an exquisite endowment as a legacy to the city.\r\n\r\nIn addition to these two benefactors, some other regents and wealthy merchants contributed with their donations.\r\nWith rise of the Empire, the city progresses as well. Thus, Bascarsija was finished by the end of the 16th century, and the city soon after witnessed its golden age. Along with Istanbul, Thessaloniki, Edirne and Athens, it became one of the 5 largest cities in the Balkans, the city of trading and wealthy and powerful community.\r\n\r\nThe square spread into several trading and craftsmen alleys, it comprised 45 markets and over 80 crafts. Tiny cobbled alleys intertwined and spread towards mosques, inns, bedestans, hamams, schools and tekkes, fountains, caravanserai\u2026\r\n\r\nThe first water supply system was built in the mid 15th century, and significantly extended in the 16th century. By the end of the Ottoman period, there were 156 spouts and several stone fountains built mainly as an endowment.\r\n\r\nSebilj Fountain is a symbol of Sarajevo. A legend says: \u201cWhoever drinks water from any of Sarajevo\u2019s fountains and spouts will come to Sarajevo\u201d. The Sebilj Fountain was built in 1753.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8174\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarajevo-2597604_1280-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" \/>\r\n\r\n<strong>2. Stari grad: Gradska vije\u0107nica<\/strong>\r\nThe need to construct a new building for the city administration came along with the Austro-Hungarian conquerors. The area of a medieval village (Brodac), where Isa-Bey\u2019s Ishakovic established the city itself in the 15th cwas identified as ideal for the new government. The Austro-Hungarians bought off several buildings and two inns and designated Alexander Wittek as the main architect. He chose the pseudo-Moorish style for one of the most expensive projects in the Austro-Hungarian Empire at the time. Allegedly, Wittek was a perfectionist so he even projected the number of bricks that would be used to build the City Hall with a variation of only 3 bricks.\r\n\r\nThis grand architectural project was completed in 1896. Wittek did not live to see the completion. Due to his perfectionism, he could have not accepted the fact that the City Hall\u2019s Auditorium did not have enough light. He considered this irreparable, had a nervous breakdown and committed suicide. Ciril M. Ivekovic took over the work, and found a simple solution and designed a glass-dome.\r\n\r\nDuring the siege of Sarajevo, this cultural and historical monument was burnt down, along with the collections of the National and University Library (which was at the time seated within the City Hall). The City Hall was recently renovated (2014) and remains one of the most impressive attractions in Sarajevo. It is a symbol of education, hope, art, culture, history, beauty.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8173\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarajevo-2013132_1280-1024x866.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"866\" \/>\r\n\r\n<strong>3. Stari grad: Muzej Sarajevskog atentata i Latinska \u0107uprija<\/strong>\r\nAt the junction of the Apel key and Franjo Josip streets (today Obala Kulina bana and Zelenih beretki streets), Gavrilo Princip, a high school student and a member of Mlada Bosna, a secret organization established by the Black Hand movement completed the organization\u2019s gloomy plan on June 28th, 1914. Gavrilo assassinated the Austro-Hungarian heir to the throne, Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie. The Austro-Hungarian Monarchy considered Serbia to be involved and sent their ultimatum on July 23, 1914. The First World War commenced soon after.\r\n\r\nThe Austro-Hungarian Monarchy set a monument dedicated to Franz Ferdinand and Sophie Hohenberg, just across the assassination spot, on Latin Bridge. The monument was removed when the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenians was established. A year after removing the monument, a new museum \u201cMuseum of Sarajevo Assassination\u201d was opened. The museum portrays the Austro-Hungarian rule, the new administration system, new way of living, crafts, economy, architecture, development of science and arts.\r\n\r\n<strong>4. Ilid\u017ea i podru\u010dje aerodroma: Monumentalni kompleks \u02ddTunel spasa\u02dd<\/strong>\r\nThe war tunnel was constructed during the 1425-day long siege Sarajevo (1992 to 1995 siege) to connect two free territories. The entrance and exit of the tunnel are two houses situated at the opposite sides of the airport.\r\n\r\nThus, the tunnel connected Dobrinja and Butmir settlements, and was named \u201cObjekat D-B\u201d. Tunnel construction was initiated in 1993 and completed the same year.\r\nThe tunnel is 720 meters long, 1.50 meters high. In 1994, narrow rails and mine carts were added to facilitate transportation of food and medicine.\r\n\r\nHumanitarian aid was delivered through this tunnel, and wounded soldiers sent out of Sarajevo over Igman mountain. Politicians and world-known reporters such as Susan Sontag used this tunnel to come to Sarajevo and offer their support to the war-torn city. Today, this unique museum structure is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the city.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-8178\" src=\"https:\/\/ero-travel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/sarajevo-4505762_1280-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" \/>\r\n\r\n<strong>5. Stari grad: europski Jeruzalem<\/strong>\r\nFor over four centuries, Sarajevo has been the city of multiculturalism. In one single street, one can step into a mosque, synagogue, Catholic or Orthodox church.\r\n\r\nWith the construction of the Sephardic Temple in the old town, along with the Old Orthodox Church and Ghazi Husrev-bey\u2019s mosque a multicultural ambiance was created. This multicultural mosaic was enriched with the New Orthodox Cathedral built in the late Ottoman era, and the Catholic Cathedral built in early Austro Hungarian era.\r\n\r\n<strong>6. Ilidza &amp; Area Airport: Vrelo Bosne<\/strong>\r\nA three-kilometer long plane-tree and chestnut tree alley which runs from Ilidza will take you to a beautiful natural monument \u2013 Vrelo Bosne.
